The word ophthalmology comes from the Greek roots 'ophthalmos' meaning eye and 'logos' meaning word, thought or discourse; ophthalmology literally means "The science of eyes."
Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine which deals with the diseases and surgery of the visual pathways, including the eye, brain, and areas surrounding the eye, such as the lacrimal system and eyelids.
