Tests done are:

- The cornea or transparent part of the eye is also examined for any white opacities as this lies in front of the cataract.
- One also looks for dry eyes.
- Microscope examination of the eye is done – this gives a good view of the extent and hardness of the cataract and helps in planning the surgery.
- Biometry test is done to determine the type and power of lens. The lens can be monofocal, multifocal or toric lens. This can be done by ultrasound and optical methods both of which can be done.
- Special tests include – corneal topography, optical coherence tomography, and specular microscopy which are done only in special situations.
