An ophthalmologist has the knowledge and professional skills needed to provide comprehensive eye and vision care. Ophthalmologists are medically trained to diagnose, monitor and medically or surgically treat all ocular and visual disorders.

In so doing, an ophthalmologist prescribes vision services, including glasses and contact lenses.
