Hi kitten...I copied and pasted the definition that I found when I googled the word Opthamologist but the Opthamologist is one who practices the branch of medicing dealing with the eye etc.

ophthalmology /oph·thal·mol·o·gy/ (of?thal-mol´ah-je) the branch of medicine dealing with the eye, including its anatomy, physiology, and pathology.ophthalmolog´ic

Glad to hear you are seeing one for your ON!  They are like a step above an Optometrist in that they deal more with diseases etc. of the eye.

Hope this helps and good luck at your appointment!

Lots of Hugs,

Rena
