1. Ophtalmology
Ophthalmologists treat a wide range of conditions including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and refractive errors like nearsightedness and farsightedness.
Adults should have a comprehensive eye exam at least once every two years, or more frequently if advised by your eye doctor based on your age, health, and risk factors.
Signs include blurred vision, difficulty seeing objects up close or far away, frequent headaches, eye strain, and squinting.
An eye exam involves tests for visual acuity, assessment of eye muscle function, pupil response, and examination of the retina and optic nerve. It may include dilation to allow a better view of the back of the eye.
Regular eye exams, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, protecting your eyes from UV rays with sunglasses, and avoiding smoking can help reduce the risk of eye diseases.
2. Diabetes specialist
A diabetes specialist offers comprehensive care for diabetes management, including diagnosis, treatment plans, medication management, lifestyle counselling, and continuous monitoring of blood sugar levels.
The frequency of visits depends on your condition. Typically, patients see their diabetes specialist every three to six months, but more frequent visits may be needed for those with poorly controlled diabetes or complications.

3. HCV RNA
The HCV RNA Test detects and measures the presence of Hepatitis C virus RNA in the blood, indicating an active infection and viral load.
The test is used to confirm Hepatitis C infection, assess viral load, evaluate treatment response, and check for relapse.
No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or recent health issues.
Results are usually available within 1 to 3 days after the test.
A high viral load indicates a higher quantity of Hepatitis C virus in the blood, suggesting more active infection and potentially more severe disease.
