| ophthalmologist |
A medical doctor who specializes in the eye. To become an Ophthalmologist one must first obtain a Medical Degree (MD) and then complete further specialty training. A medical degree typically takes 7 or 8 years university training and a specialist certification an extra 3 years in the USA or 4 years in Canada. Specialist MD's are usually divided into "medical" and "surgical" discipline. Some Ophthalmologists choose not to perform surgery and can be called "medical ophthalmologists".
