Ophthalmology is a clinical and surgical specialty within medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of eye disorders. This field encompasses both medical and surgical approaches to address a wide range of conditions affecting the eyes, including diseases of the retina, cornea, glaucoma, and cataracts. Historically, the term “oculism” was used to describe the study of the eye.
An ophthalmologist is a physician who completes specialized training in both medical and surgical eye care. After obtaining a medical degree, an aspiring ophthalmologist undergoes extensive postgraduate residency training specific to ophthalmology. This residency often includes a one-year integrated internship in general medicine or surgery, followed by focused training in eye care. Additionally, ophthalmologists may pursue further subspecialty training, or fellowships, in specific areas of eye pathology to gain expertise in particular aspects of the field.
