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

Some of the signs you need to visit an ophthalmologist include:
If you notice the above-listed signs and symptoms, you are suggested to see an opthalmologist for a proper diagnosis of the condition. The opthalmologist will evaluate the test reports and will plan the treatment that is best for you.
