Ophthalmology

Ophthalmology (or the study of eye diseases) is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and disorders affecting the eye and surrounding areas such as the eyelids, tear ducts, optic nerve, and the muscles around the eye.

The aim of ophthalmology is to maintain eye health and restore its function when necessary.

Types of Ophthalmology:

  • General Ophthalmology: Deals with the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of common eye diseases such as visual fatigue, degenerative diseases like cataracts and glaucoma, and ocular inflammations.
  • Eye Surgery: Includes surgical procedures such as LASIK, intraocular lens implantation to correct near and far vision, eyelid surgeries, and reconstructive eye surgeries following injuries or due to severe diseases.
  • Pediatric Ophthalmology: Specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases and problems affecting children, such as genetic diseases and developmental vision disorders from birth to adulthood.
  • Retina and Vitreous Diseases: Focuses on diseases of the back part of the eye such as retinal tears and detachment, retinal fibrosis, retinal hemorrhage, and tumors.
  • Ocular Anesthesia: Uses anesthesia techniques in medical procedures on the eye such as precise surgeries and removal of foreign objects.

Ophthalmic Treatments:

  • Medications: Includes eye drops, ointments, and oral medications like tablets used for treating inflammations and chronic eye diseases.
  • Surgery: Includes surgical procedures such as LASIK, lens replacement, retinal repair surgeries, corneal transplantation, and eyelid surgeries as well as other cosmetic surgeries.
  • Orthoptic Treatments: Such as using glasses and contact lenses to correct vision and improve sight.
  • Preventive Treatments: Includes regular check-ups for early detection of eye diseases and preventive measures like protecting the eye from injuries.
