An eye doctor is a healthcare professional who specializes in the care and treatment of eye conditions. There are two main types: optometrists and ophthalmologists. Optometrists (OD) focus on vision correction, prescribing glasses and contact lenses, and diagnosing common eye conditions like dry eye or mild glaucoma. They may also detect early signs of more serious conditions and refer patients to an ophthalmologist if needed. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who provide a wider range of services, including diagnosing and treating complex eye diseases, performing eye surgeries like cataract removal or LASIK, and managing conditions like glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Additionally, opticians assist in fitting and dispensing eyewear based on prescriptions but do not diagnose or treat eye diseases. Choosing the right eye doctor depends on your needs, whether it's routine vision care or specialized medical and surgical treatments.
