1. Retinal Specialists: Retinal specialists focus on diseases and disorders affecting the retina, which is the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. They diagnose and treat conditions such as retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and other retinal diseases. Surgical retinal specialists can perform retinal surgeries, including vitrectomies and retinal detachment repairs.

2. Glaucoma Specialists: These ophthalmologists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma, a group of eye diseases that can cause damage to the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. They manage and monitor glaucoma patients, prescribe medications, and perform surgical procedures to lower intraocular pressure.
