Spanish term or phrase: medico especialista en oftalmologia
Hola! Estoy traduciendo un diploma y no estoy segura de como traducir esta expresión. Encontré
"Ophthalmology specialist" pero no estoy segura de que esté bien, ya que me falta cubrir la idea de "médico". Entiendo que se de por sobreentendido, porque si es oftalmólogo seguro que ya es medico, pero al ser un diploma entiendo que tendría que aclararlo igual.

Como lo resolverían?

Gracias!

medical ophthalmologist (medical doctor specialized in ophthalmology)


Explanation:
Entre paréntesis una opción que resulta más parecida al original en español. Lo he visto tanto con 'Ophtalmology' con 'O' mayúscula como en minúsculas, en ocasiones con el inciso '(Eye)' a continuación.
No obstante, resulta más común el uso de medical ophthalmologist/ ophthalmic physician (sinónimos).

Explanation:
Depende del tipo de texto con el que estés trabajando. Si bien "ophthalmologist" es una traducción correcta, la opción "eye doctor" es igualmente acertada y muy usada sobre todo el textos para pacientes.

Explanation:
Al igual que los otros comentarios, considero que ophthalmologist incluye la parte de “médico especialista”, pero tal vez esta sea una solución viable.
