FAQ's Related to Ophthalmologist

What does an opthalmologist do?

An ophthalmologist helps improve patients’ vision by testing the eyes in order to diagnose and treat disorders. Some ophthalmologists specialize in eye surgery to correct and fix eye problems. An ophthalmologist can provide the same services as an optometrist, such as prescribing eyeglasses as well as contact lenses to treat vision problems. If you have an eye problem such as cataracts or any other conditions that would require surgical treatment, an ophthalmologist is a suitable doctor to address your problem. Though an ophthalmologist generally treats eye-related problems, they may also offer consultation for conditions that are not linked to the eyes. They also take part in scientific research to find new treatment methods.

  • Visual field (confrontation) testing
  • Pupil function
  • Slit-lamp
  • Intraocular pressure
