One specialty, many subspecialties
Begin with the eye problem
Some people want less dependence on glasses. Others need treatment for a cloudy lens, high eye pressure, retinal disease, corneal damage, eyelid problems, or a child’s visual development.
The appropriate ophthalmologist may be a cornea and refractive surgeon, cataract specialist, retinal specialist, glaucoma specialist, paediatric ophthalmologist, neuro-ophthalmologist, or oculoplastic surgeon.
Bring previous examination results, scans, operation reports, current glasses prescription, medicine list, and details of any eye injections, laser treatment, trauma, or surgery.
