A positive result indicates recent or current infection with the Dengue virus.

No, additional tests, such as Dengue NS1 antigen test or PCR, may be required to identify the specific serotype.

No, the Dengue IgM test is designed to detect recent or current infections during the acute phase.

Dengue IgM antibodies are typically detectable in the bloodstream for up to 3 months after infection.

A negative result suggests no detectable Dengue IgM antibodies. If symptoms persist or there is recent exposure, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

A comprehensive eye exam includes tests to check vision clarity, eye muscle function, and overall eye health, helping detect issues like refractive errors, glaucoma, and cataracts early.

Adults should have an eye exam every 1-2 years, or as recommended by their eye doctor based on age, risk factors, and existing eye conditions.

Symptoms include blurry vision, glare, halos around lights, and reduced color perception, which can worsen over time.

LASIK and PRK are common surgeries to correct vision by reshaping the cornea. Other procedures include LASEK and SMILE.

Children should have their first eye exam between 6 months and 1 year of age, then at ages 3 and 5, and every 1-2 years thereafter.

A Urine Pregnancy Test (UPT) detects the presence of the hormone hCG in a woman’s urine to confirm pregnancy.

You can take a UPT if you have missed your period or are experiencing early pregnancy symptoms.

The UPT is highly accurate when performed correctly and can detect pregnancy within a few days of a missed period.

The test involves collecting a urine sample and using a test strip or device to detect hCG levels.

If your UPT result is positive, contact your healthcare provider to discuss the next steps and begin prenatal care.
