No; Physics is the study of how our physical world works, in general (excluding Chemistry, which is usually considered a separate science); Optics - the study of how light moves - is only one branch of Physics. Other branches of Physics include Kinematics; Dynamics; Electricity; Magnetism; Theory of Relativity; and others.
