  1. Pupil dilation

  2. Color vision test

  3. Visual field test

  4. Retinal examination

The correct answer is: Retinal examination

A Pupil dilation is not related to examining the back of the eye, but rather to the size and response of the eye's pupil. B: Color vision test is not a complete assessment of the back of the eye, but rather evaluates the ability to perceive and differentiate colors. C: Visual field test is used to detect peripheral vision loss, but it does not provide a comprehensive view of the back of the eye. D: Retinal examination involves looking at the back of the eye, including the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels. It is necessary to fully evaluate the health and function of the eye and can detect issues such as macular degeneration, retinal tears or detachments, and glaucoma.
