In most settings, an eye surgeon is an **ophthalmologist** with surgical training. The term is commonly used when discussing procedures like cataract surgery, laser vision correction, or retinal surgery. People may also use it broadly to describe specialists who operate on the eyes, eyelids, or orbit (the bony eye socket)."}
