Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and management of eye disorders, including diseases and injuries of the eye and visual system. Ophthalmology expert witnesses are healthcare professionals with extensive knowledge and experience in ophthalmology who can provide expert testimony in cases related to eye disorders, including medical malpractice, product liability, and personal injury.
