Ophthalmology Pediatric Ophthalmology
Pediatric Ophthalmology is a subspecialty of Ophthalmology that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, disorders and visual development in children. Treatment may range from nutritional treatments to vision therapy, laser treatments, and surgery. The importance of this field is to detect and treat conditions early in a child’s life that can have a major impact on visual development and quality of life. Early diagnosis and treatment of conditions like strabismus, amblyopia, retinopathy of prematurity, and congenital cataracts can lead to improved visual outcomes and long-term health.
