Ophthalmology:  Serving All Your Eye Needs

   An Ophthalmologist, who is either a Medical Doctor (MD) or an Osteopathic Doctor (DO) who specializes in eyes and vision care.  Unlike an Optometrist, an Eye M.D. is specially trained to provide the full spectrum of eye care, from prescribing glasses and contact lenses to complex and delicate eye procedures and eye surgeries.

  Many Eye M.D.s are also involved in scientific research into the causes and cures for eye diseases and vision problems.

  Eye M.D.s are an essential part of the eye care team, in addition to four years of medical school and one year of internship, every Eye M.D. spends a minimum of three years of residency in ophthalmology.

  An Eye M.D. spends an additional one to two years training in a sub-specialties such as:

·         Cornea and External Disease

 

·         Glaucoma

·         Neuro-Ophthalmology       

 

·         Ophthalmic Pathology

·         Ocular Plastic Surgery

 

·         Pediatric Ophthalmology

·         Uveitis-inflammatory Eye Disease

 

·         Vitreoretinal Diseases

The Palm Beach County Ophthalmology and the Florida Society of Ophthalmology represents the best and the brightest in eye care physicians.  Unlike other eye care providers and ophthalmologist is required to go to four years of medical school, one year of internship and three years minimum of residency in ophthalmology.

  You can depend on our organizations to be involved in the community and caring about proper patient care.  So when you are seeking the best in eye care go to an PBCOS and FSO ophthalmologist.  You can do that by going to the FSO website at www.mdeye.org and clicking on patient.  You can search for an ophthalmologist in your area.  On our website, PBCOS.org,  you can search by area or name, using the menu on the top left.
