Ophthalmology is the complex and challenging branch of medicine which deals with the diseases and surgery of the visual pathways, including the eye and brain - indeed, ophthalmology literally means the science of eyes. Matters concerning vision require both delicate treatment and emotional support for patients.
Supported by the latest research and hi-tech equipment, Epworth HealthCare’s specialist eye surgeons are all associated with Melbourne's major teaching hospitals and apart from the excellent care they offer our patients they also regularly participate in education programs for hospital staff, GPs and fellow medical professionals.
Ophthalmology services are offered at Epworth Richmond and Epworth Freemasons. Please click through for more information.
