Ophthalmology is a surgical branch of medicine that focuses on the identification and management of eye diseases. The medical specialty of ophthalmology focuses on the anatomy, physiology, and disease of the eye and visual system. Ophthalmologists treat eye conditions with drugs, laser therapy, and surgery if necessary. Primary and specialized medical and surgical eye care are also offered by ophthalmologists. At some time during their training, the majority of ophthalmologists take part in academic research on eye problems, and many go on to make research their profession.
