I have a cut inside my eye lid, and it has been there for 7 months now. What kind of doctor should I go to?

Question

Will a regular physician do? I don't know any eye doctor.

Answer 1

Go to your family doctor for a referral to an opthamologist, an eye and vision doctor.

Answer 2

You should visit your primary care physician first. He or she will will then refer you to an ophthalmologist or eye specialist, if required.

Answer 3

umm how about an eye doctor?

Answer 4

You can go and look on the yellow pages and look for an eye doctor or you can ask your regular physician if he or she knows any eye doctors

Answer 5

Very likely, you would be referred to an ophthalmologist. My suggestion is to contact your doctor's nurse and ask who you should see. Might save you the cost of an office call.
