r/Ophthalmology is a subreddit with 18k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is large in size, and has high activity.
This is a forum for professional-level discussion between and amongst ophthalmologists and ophthalmology trainees. Optometrists, ophthalmic photographers, and other allied eyecare health professionals are welcome to join discussions as well.
This is NOT a forum for questions about your own eye condition, or that of your relatives or friends. For those, try r/eyetriage (but even then, please contact your own ophthalmologist or optometrist, as medical advice without an exam is unethical).
