When you need eye care, there are two types of eye doctors and a technician who may be involved in your care. They each have a different level of training and different roles in caring for your eyes.

  • Ophthalmologists are medical doctors specializing in eye and vision care. They have advanced training to diagnose and treat a wide range of vision problems using medicine, laser technology and surgery. In addition, some ophthalmologists further specialize in an area of medical or surgical care, such as pediatrics, retina care or eye cancer.
  • Optometrists provide primary health care for your eyes. They perform annual eye exams, write prescriptions for lenses and detect diseases and disorders that may affect your vision.
  • Opticians fill your lens prescription and help you select and fit your eyeglass frames.

Sudden changes in your vision could be signs of an eye emergency that needs immediate attention. If you have an eye injury or changes in vision, always consult with a doctor.
