Hello
It seems from the history that you are prescribed with nepalact eye drops which is a antiinflammatory drug and zen forte for treatment of itchy and watery eyes.
DFA test is done for detection of infections in microbiology and it stands for direct fluorescent antibody test. I think your docotr has advised FFA test which stands for fundus fluorescein angiography and it is done to find out the vascular and inflammatory diseases of the retina.
I think he has suggested you FFA test to find out retinal inflammatory or vascular disease.
Thank you
