Ophthalmology Specialty Pharmacy
About Ophthalmology
Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine focused on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of eye diseases and vision disorders. It involves understanding the structure and function of the eye, as well as identifying conditions that can affect sight, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal diseases. These conditions can vary in severity and may impact one or both eyes.
Treatment options in ophthalmology depend on the specific condition but may include medications, laser treatments, or surgical procedures aimed at preserving or improving vision and preventing further damage to the eye.
Ophthalmic medications may be used to manage a range of eye conditions and can be administered as drops, injections, or implants, depending on the diagnosis and treatment plan.
