Occupational Ophthalmology

Occupational Ophthalmology is a specialized area within Occupational Medicine focused on eye health related to workplace environments. It addresses how various work-related factors, such as exposure to chemicals, excessive screen time, or harmful lighting, can affect vision and eye comfort. Professionals in this field assess and treat eye conditions arising from these exposures and provide guidance on preventive measures to protect workers' eye health. This ensures that employees can perform their jobs effectively while minimizing the risk of eye injuries or long-term vision problems associated with their occupations.
