Nature of the content

The information published on this site is informative and educational in nature. Its purpose is to help patients better understand certain eye conditions and the procedures available for them.

It is in no case a substitute for an in-person medical consultation, a professional diagnosis or the treatment prescribed by a doctor. No one should start, change or stop a treatment on the basis of what they read here alone.

In an ophthalmic emergency — sudden loss of vision, ocular trauma, severe pain, or the sudden appearance of flashes with a shadow in the visual field — go straight to an emergency department.

Doctor–patient relationship

Browsing this website, submitting a form or exchanging emails does not in itself establish a doctor–patient relationship. That relationship is established solely through an in-person consultation.
