Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery

10080 NE Medlock Bridge Road, Duluth, GA 30097

404-953-4023

Dr. Pooja Sharma, who practices in Duluth, GA, is a medical specialist in ophthalmic plastic surgery.

"I was referred by an optometrist with GA Eye Partners to Dr. Mally for swelling of my optic nerve. She diagnosed me with optic neuritis and more bloodwork. She did not follow up for the results of said bloodwork. Given the misdiagnosis, I was sent to a MS neurologist who said "we are late out of the gate" in terms of steroid treatment as it was 4 weeks after I was seen...I made the decision to walk into Emory's main ER in Atlanta the following day where they diagnosed me with NAION. GA Eye Partners has not been referring their patients who need a neuro opthalmologist to Dr. Mally but instead to Emory. Unfortunately, I was referred to her in error and it was an unnecessary frightening road given her lack of expertise. She should stick to cosmetic surgery..."

What is Ophthalmology?

An ophthalmologist is a physician who diagnoses and treats problems of the eye. As opposed to optometrists, ophthalmologists are medical doctors, and their specialty is comprehensive eye care and eye surgery. An ophthalmologist can:

see patients for routine eye care
diagnose eye problems
prescribe glasses, contact lenses, and medications
provide refractive therapies to correct vision, such as LASIK
perform surgery on the eye

Ophthalmologists are trained in the same vision screening practices as optometrists; however, their practice tends to focus more on the medical and surgical management of complex eye disorders. Although vision is important, so is the physical health of the eye. An ophthalmologist performing an eye exam will examine the whole eye including the eyelids, the muscles that move the eye, the front and back parts of the eye, and the pressure inside the eye.

Patients sometimes see ophthalmologists as their primary eye care and vision doctors, or they may be referred to an ophthalmologist for treatment of a one-time problem with their eye, such as an infection. Ophthalmologists provide routine care for patients who have chronic eye diseases, such as glaucoma (where pressure inside the eye damages the optic nerve sending images to the brain) or macular degeneration (an age-related eye disease that causes vision loss). In addition to providing routine care, ophthalmologists will perform eye surgery on patients who need more serious treatment, such as a corneal transplant.
