Ophthalmology focuses on eye care in a way that is different and more intensive than optometry. While optometrists provide primary routine eye care including vision testing, correction, and the diagnosis and treatment of vision changes, ophthalmologists are licensed to practice medicine and surgery and diagnose and treat a wider range of eye conditions.
Ophthalmology can be used to treat all eye problems and conditions, including:
- Cataracts
- Glaucoma
- Strabismus surgery
- Routine eye care
- Pediatrics
- Neurology
- Oculo-plastic surgery
At Western Wisconsin Health, our ophthalmology and cataract care are provided by Dr. Anthony Novak, an experienced and certified Ophthalmologist from River Falls Eye Surgery and Laser Center with more than 25 years of experience.
