Ophthalmology
It is the branch of medicine and surgery specializing in treating eye disorders and systemic diseases that manifest in the eye and its daily life functioning like tissues. Shalamar also offers osteopathic treatments that may include applying corrective lenses to repair vision.
Diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration are the most dealt with patients at Shalamar.
