Vision is one of the vital senses of the human body. Still, a visit to an ophthalmologist is strongly recommended during any abnormality that could affect the human eye or strength of one’s vision. Ophthalmology is a medical department which heals or diagnoses eye disorders and deals with the entire range of eye treatment. An eye doctor may use a mixture of procedures and tests to obtain the desired report. One of the most commonly used methods for evaluating ocular structures is an optical coherence tomography (OCT), a study essential to ophthalmology. The test information is subsequently used by doctors/doctors to evaluate/conclude a specific treatment plan that could include a wide variety of pathological processes and clinical diagnoses. Subsequent OCT scans may manage some conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy.
A speciality of Ophthalmology, Ocular Surgery, primarily deals with surgical procedures done on the eye or its adnexa. By its fragility and sensitivity, the human eye becomes an organ with extreme care. An ocular surgeon can be responsible for recommending the appropriate surgery and, if necessary, educating the patient with the required precautions.
