Ophthalmology
Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine dedicated to keeping your eyes healthy! Imagine it as a specialized field of doctors who diagnose and treat all sorts of eye conditions.
An ophthalmologist is your eye care expert. They've gone through extensive training after medical school, spending an additional 4-5 years specializing in ophthalmology. Sometimes, this training may even involve a year focused on internal medicine, pediatrics, or general surgery to gain a broader foundation.
