Is optics and optical engineering important to study for ophthalmology?

My college offers both optics and optical engineering as majors and these focus on quantum optics, nanophotonics, optoelectronics, and more. Since these emphasize more on light's interactions with lenses and engineering the devices possibly used in medical exams, I was unsure if I should involve myself in these classes. I hope to become an eye surgeon, not an optometrist but does anyone have some advice?
