If you are referring t an ophthalmologist, then yes, they should be a licensed physician. However, I imagine that very few of them practice homeopathy.
Yes ophthalmologists are medical doctors who specialize in diseases of the eye. They had to go to four years of medical school and then do a residency in ophthalmology, at which point they can take their board exam. Optometrists on the other hand are not medical doctors, but they did do specialized training after college and are licensed in their field.
There are no suggested homeopathic remedies that can be used as treatments for keratitis. A doctor should be seen. The doctor will probably prescribe medicated eye drops and the use of an eye patch to keep the eye from being irritated further.
Not all dental specialists or eye specialists are doctors. Also, you can be a specialist in an academic subject (such as maths) without being a medical doctor.
The kind of service that an ophthalmologist provides is helping with eye sight. They are specially trained medical doctors that specializes in eye and vision care.
Eye Doctors
Eye doctors treat people who have eye problems. Some treatments are more simple, such as prescribing corrective lenses. Eye doctors also treat patients who have more serious problems, such as cataracts or glaucoma. Medicaid eye doctors can treat indigent patients who cannot afford their own health care, and therefore receive Medicaid benefits. Medicaid does not pay for elective procedures, so a Medicaid doctor will not perform treatments such as LASIK surgery. You can ask various medical support groups for a referral to a qualified Medicaid eye doctor.

eye doctors
In the United States... Opticians measure for, then specify and order, and then fit eyeglasses. Optometrists do eye exams, and have very limited "medical" treatment and prescription capabilities. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors -- physicians -- who specialize in the human eye, and can do anything and everything regarding the diagnosis and treatment of it.

Eye surgery is covered usually under major medical insurance if it is work related. It also depends on your insurance carrier in terms of the costs and doctors you can choose from.
Eye doctors can either purchase their eye charts online or through professional companies. They can also just print out their own eye chart if they possess a retail printer.
