Welcome to our ophthalmic practice in Zollikon!

Many people are affected by vision disorders. They are unable to clearly see objects either near or far away. They therefore need a visual aid, such as glasses or contact lenses. Your ophthalmologist in Zollikon determines the correction needed to adjust these visual aids as part of a visual acuity measurement. Performing eye tests is one of the most important tasks of an ophthalmologist.
Regular measurement is not only important for sharp vision, but also in the context of preventive care. This is because many eye diseases that require treatment also manifest themselves in declining visual performance of the affected eye.
