ophthalmology
含义: The branch of medicine concerned with the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders and diseases of the eye.
Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who can perform eye surgery, prescribe medication, and diagnose conditions ranging from glaucoma and cataracts to macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. They differ from optometrists (who primarily test eyesight and prescribe glasses) and opticians (who fit and supply glasses). The word is notably difficult to spell and pronounce.
