The test measures the concentration of phosphorus in your blood, which is essential for bone health, energy production, and cell function.

It helps diagnose and monitor conditions like osteoporosis, kidney disease, parathyroid disorders, and metabolic imbalances affecting phosphorus levels.

Generally, fasting is not required. However, inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you’re taking, as they can affect test results.

Results are typically available within a few hours to a day, allowing for timely medical decisions based on phosphorus levels in your blood.

Abnormal levels can be caused by kidney disease, parathyroid disorders, vitamin D deficiency, certain medications, or metabolic disorders. Your healthcare provider will interpret results based on your specific condition.

The S. IgA Test measures Immunoglobulin A levels to assess immune function and diagnose immune disorders.

No special preparation is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm, which is then analyzed for IgA levels.

Low levels may suggest an IgA deficiency or other immune system disorders.

Results are typically available within a few hours to one day, depending on the lab’s processing time.

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.
