What is Ophthalmology?

Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the eye. Among those who specialise in treating these disorders are ophthalmologists, optometrists, and opticians.

Ophthalmologists have the highest level of medical education and experience out of opticians and optometrists and are able to carry out surgical eye procedures.

Ophthalmologists diagnose and treat injuries, infections, diseases, and disorders of the eye.

Signs that you should see an Ophthalmologist are:

• Decrease in vision.
• Halos or glare from lights, especially while driving at night.
• Eye pain or redness.
• Double vision.
• Dryness or excessive tearing.
• Eyelid abnormalities.

Our expert Ophthalmologists are available to assess and diagnose conditions of the eye including:

• Partial or complete loss of vision.
• Eye injuries, pain or inflammation.
• Eye conditions, such as glaucoma.
• Health conditions that can affect their eyes, including diabetes and high blood pressure.
• Poor vision that needs specialist care.
