Eye care and vision

When you need eye care, our ophthalmologist is here to provide comprehensive eye care services to you and your whole family.

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.
