Bahasa Inggris untuk Pemeriksaan Mata: Pandangan Kabur, Mata Sakit, Mata Kering, dan Lensa Kontak

Artikel ini hanya mengajarkan komunikasi bahasa Inggris di lingkungan medis, bukan diagnosis atau saran pengobatan. Jika kamu mengalami penurunan tajam pandangan secara mendadak, ada bayangan hitam atau kilatan cahaya di lapang pandang, nyeri hebat satu mata disertai sakit kepala dan mual, atau benturan / luka tembus pada bola mata, segera ke unit gawat darurat atau hubungi 911.

Layanan mata di Amerika terbagi dua profesi utama: optometrist (driver's vision specialist, OD) menangani pemeriksaan tajam pandangan, kacamata, lensa kontak, dan kesehatan mata umum; ophthalmologist (dokter spesialis mata, MD) lulusan kedokteran yang melakukan operasi dan menangani penyakit mata. Pemeriksaan tajam pandangan rutin biasanya di optometrist; mata merah akut, penurunan pandangan mendadak, atau cedera mata harus ke ophthalmologist atau ER. Artikel ini hanya mengajarkan komunikasi, bukan cara memilih klinik.
