What do Ophthalmologists do?

An ophthalmologist has the knowledge and professional skills needed to provide comprehensive eye and vision care.

Ophthalmologists are medically trained to diagnose, monitor, and medically or surgically treat all ocular and visual disorders.

This includes problems affecting the eye and its component structures, the eyelids, the orbit, and the visual pathways.

In so doing, an ophthalmologist prescribes vision services, including glasses and contact lenses.
