Title: Opthalmologist?
Post by: Streetbudgie on 12 November 2012, 06:18:12 pm
Anyone know of a website that provides info and Customer reviews of Opthalmologists in defined areas?

Need to find a new one and haven't got a clue where to start looking.

Not interested in going to high street opticians as all that silly reading charts and trying different lenses for 10 seconds doesn't work.

You need an Optometrist (proper optician) if you want your eyes testing  and glasses


[/size]Optometry[/size] is a [/size]health care profession (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_profession)[/color][/size] concerned with the health of the [/size]eyes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_eye)[/color][/size] and related structures, as well as [/size]vision (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity)[/color][/size], [/size]visual systems (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system)[/color][/size], and [/size]vision information processing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_perception)[/color][/size] in humans. Optometrists are trained to prescribe and fit lenses to improve vision, and to diagnose and treat various eye diseases

[/size]
[/size]An [/size]ophthalmologist[/size] is a specialist in medical and surgical eye problems. Since ophthalmologists perform operations on eyes, they are considered to be both [/size]surgical (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgery)[/color][/size] and [/size]medical (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicine)[/color][/size] specialists.
[/size]
[/size]Make sure you search for the right specialist ;)

Where you at?
My bro is an optician in Colchester, head partner in independant opticians. He's good but not cheap. I go to Specsavers!!
Tori is one of his happy patients.
