What is ophthalmology?

Ophthalmology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the health of the eyes and the visual system. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors responsible for diagnosing, treating, and preventing a wide range of eye conditions, including vision impairment, inflammatory eye diseases, and structural abnormalities of the eye.

The field includes precise vision testing, determining correction with glasses or contact lenses, as well as carrying out the necessary medical and surgical procedures. Ophthalmology plays a key role in the early detection of eye diseases, the preservation of vision, and the improvement of quality of life.

When is it recommended to see an ophthalmologist?

It is worth visiting an ophthalmologist not only when we already experience clear vision problems, but also for preventive purposes. In the following cases, it is definitely recommended to consult an eye specialist:

1. Vision deterioration, blurred vision

  • If you have difficulty seeing either at a distance or up close
  • If your visual acuity worsens while reading, driving, or watching TV
  • If you experience double vision

2. Eye pain, pressure sensation

  • Painful eye movements
  • Burning or stabbing sensation in the eyes
  • Feeling of pressure, which may indicate glaucoma

3. Frequent headaches

  • Especially if the headache occurs in the forehead or around the eyes and worsens after activities related to vision

4. Redness, discharge, inflammation of the eye

  • In case of suspected infection (e.g. conjunctivitis), allergy, or other inflammatory conditions

5. Light sensitivity, flashes of light, sparkles

  • These may indicate retinal detachment or migraine phenomena – proper examination is important

6. Floating spots or black dots in the field of vision

  • Especially if they appear suddenly – could be an early sign of retinal detachment

7. For regular screening purposes

  • Recommended annually over the age of 40, but even more frequently for contact lens users, diabetics, and people with high blood pressure

8. For children

  • If squinting, frequent blinking, tilting the head, learning difficulties, or coordination problems are observed
  • Eye screening is recommended at age 1, then again at age 3, and before starting school

9. In case of hereditary risk

  • If there is a family history of glaucoma, cataract, macular degeneration, or other eye diseases

Basic Ophthalmology Examination

The comprehensive eye examination is a general, thorough check-up during which the ophthalmologist assesses the overall health of the eyes and visual acuity. It is the first step in diagnosing eye problems and in prevention. The examination typically includes the following key elements: medical history, visual acuity test, intraocular pressure measurement, slit-lamp examination, fundoscopy (eye fundus examination), and additional tests if necessary. The examination usually takes 20–30 minutes. If pupil dilation is required, it may take longer, as vision may temporarily become blurred.

Follow-up examination
  • A szemészeti kontroll vizsgálat egy olyan ismétlő vizsgálat, amelyet a korábbi szemészeti alapvizsgálat vagy kezelés után végeznek annak érdekében, hogy:
    • monitor changes in the condition of the eyes,
    • assess the effectiveness of prescribed eyeglasses or contact lenses,
    • evaluate the progression of a specific eye condition (e.g. glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease),
    • check the effects of medical treatment or the healing process after surgery.
Ophthalmology Examination – with OCT

The specialist eye examination with OCT is a detailed ophthalmological assessment complemented by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). This advanced imaging technique enables cross-sectional, high-resolution visualization of the internal layers of the eye — primarily the retina and the optic nerve head. The duration of the examination is typically 30–40 minutes.
