Ophthalmology - What Is An Average For An Ophthalmologist Salary?

There are many sources that give an estimate of the average salary for an Ophthalmologist. In our opinion, the data gathered by Medscape is the most accurate. Accordingly, they reported that in 2019 the average salary for an Ophthalmologist is  $366,000 per year. This puts an Ophthalmology trained specialist above the average pay for a physician.
