Fundus photography does not replace binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy; it is a tool to supplement and complement existing findings and to maintain a record of disease progression.

Ideally, the eye examination consists of an external examination, followed by specific tests for visual acuity, pupil function, extraocular muscle motility, visual fields, intraocular pressure and ophthalmoscopy through a dilated pupil.

By injecting fluorescin into macaques before scanning, fluorescence adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy ( FAOSLO ) can be utilized to image individual capillaries in the nerve fiber layer and determine the thickness of the nerve fiber layer itself.

Retinal hemorrhages that take place outside the macula can go undetected for many years, and may sometimes only be picked up when the eye is examined in detail by ophthalmoscopy, fundus photography, or a dilated fundus exam.
