Ophtalmology

HM Hospitals is a leader in the implantation of multifocal lenses, and different types of laser refractive surgery that correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, and in the implantation of ICL lenses, which help to reduce the effects of myopia without the use of lasers.

Ophthalmology is the medical-surgical specialty relating to the diagnosis and treatment of defects and diseases of the ocular system.

Along with Otorhinolaryngology and Dermatology, it constitutes one of the so-called first-generation specialties, and was historically the first to be academically accredited and socially accepted as a specialty.

The field exists as a specialty because of the unique anatomical and functional nature of the ocular system, and the need to divide up the work, but not in relation to a specific technique; it involves the application of medicine as a whole to the particular group of practical cases concerning defects and diseases of the ocular system.
