Ophthalmology




Ophthalmology is the medical specialty dedicated to treating diseases and injuries to the eye. Unlike the optometrist who examines your eyes for glasses or contact lenses, an ophthalmologist is actually a surgeon who has spent years studying eye disease progression and ever-evolving surgical techniques. Some of the treatments offered by Memorial Hospital’s ophthalmology specialists include:

• Cataract surgery
• Refractive surgery
• Corneal transplants
• Lens surgery
• Diabetic retinopathy
• Eye trauma
• Glaucoma
