Fellowship Description:

This fellowship will combine the strengths of the refractive surgery service, corneal disease service and basic science/clinical research into a single program that will offer the most comprehensive and advanced academic training in the subspecialty of corneal diseases and surgery, and refractive surgery.

The fellowship program will encompass comprehensive active clinical practice in the fields of cornea, external disease and keratorefractive surgery geared to treat not only the common clinical problems encountered in this field but also the most challenging cases referred to a tertiary-care level institution. These include high-risk corneal transplantation, ocular surface reconstruction with amniotic membrane grafting, limbal stem cell grafting, treatment of inflammatory diseases of the eye and management of surgical complications.

During the one-year program, the active clinical experience will provide candidates with the opportunity to participate in relevant clinical investigation trials that would allow implementation of new technologies and concepts being developed in these fields.
