Do I need a referral from my GP or optician to book an appointment?

No, ophthalmology is a medical specialty directly accessible to insured patients in Switzerland — no referral from a GP or optician is needed. All consultations covered by the LAMal are reimbursed by basic health insurance.

What is the difference between an ophthalmologist and an optician?

An ophthalmologist is a fully qualified Swiss medical doctor who can diagnose, monitor and treat eye health conditions. They issue medical prescriptions for optical corrections, which are then fitted by the optician or optometrist.
