Program Overview

This is a fellowship that provides a well-rounded combination of clinical knowledge, surgical training, and clinical experience. While using hi-tech tools and techniques of contemporary ophthalmology, you will learn to diagnose, treat, and manage a broad spectrum of eye disorders. The program equips you with knowledge of the experienced specialists and exposure to the actual cases of patients to prepare you to practice independently and with confidence.

Why This Fellowship Stands Out

  • Practical training based on actual-patient scenarios.

  • Multiple subspecialties: cataract, glaucoma, cornea, retina and oculoplasty.

  • Train on-the-job with the seasoned ophthalmologists.

  • Online + clinical module flexible learning.

  • Clinical training in accordance with international standards.

  • Certification by CPD UK.

Learning Format

Phase 1: Online Learning

Begin with guided online education that will form a solid foundation.

  • Basic ophthalmology and disease treatment.

  • Diagnostic techniques and surgical principles

  • Live Webinars with faculty professionals.

  • Taped lectures to listen at any time.

  • Materials such as notes and e-books.
