Answer:

The answer is B

Explanation:

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Ophthalmoscopy is a test that is used by ophthalmologists to see the fundus (retina, optic disc and blood vessels) of the eye and adjacent structures.

To do it, an ophthalmoscope is required and the pupil must be dilatated (this is done using tropicamide).

Ophthalmoscopy can be direct (if the ophthalmologist only uses the ophthalmoscope) or indirect (if he or she uses a lens in front of your eye while wearing a light in their forehead).
