In addition, ophthalmologists will perform routine eye examinations, dispense advice to patients, and write prescriptions for glasses or contact lenses. Ophthalmologists are also able to prescribe eye drops or drugs to help treat eye infections and diseases. In addition, an ophthalmologist can perform surgery to correct eye injuries and diseases.

Education and Training: An ophthalmologist must first obtain a bachelor's degree. Once that is done, the ophthalmologist must finish a 4 year ophthalmologist program. After all education has been completed, an Ophthalmology Certification Exam must be passed in order to become a certified ophthalmologist.
