FAQ's Related to Ophthalmologist

What does an opthalmologist do?

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who is trained in vision and eye care. Ophthalmologists are different from optometrists and opticians because of their different levels of training and the conditions they diagnose and treat. Some ophthalmologists work closely with other medical experts to provide care for chronic eye conditions. 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.

What are the tests required before and during the consultation by an Ophthalmologist?

The tests required before and during the consultation by an opthalmologist include:

  • Intraocular pressure
  • Visual acuity
  • Refraction
  • Ocular motility
  • External examination
  • Pupil function
  • Visual field (confrontation) testing
  • Slit-lamp

There are several eye conditions and each of them produces different signs and symptoms. An opthalmologist will perform a series of tests to find out the eye problem. An eye exam helps find out eye problems at the earliest stage. Also, regular eye checkups help your eye specialist to correct or adapt to vision changes and provide you tips on eye care.
