Fellowship Description:

This fellowship consists of training in the surgical and medical management of diseases of the retina and vitreous. The training is provided by the Retina Section of Emory Eye Center at Emory University. The program provides an intensive, broadly based clinical experience in retinal and vitreous disease, with the goal of training the physician to pursue a career in an academic environment.

Training is provided in all major diagnostic and therapeutic techniques in retinal and vitreous disease. Particular emphasis is placed on indirect ophthalmoscopy, fundus biomicroscopy, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, ocular coherence tomography and ultrasonography. Extensive experience is provided at Grady Memorial Hospital, the Atlanta Veterans Affairs Hospital, Children's Hospital of Atlanta, and The Emory Eye Center. Increasing responsibility for scleral buckling and vitrectomy surgery is provided throughout both years. The fellow also acts as an attending physician, providing supervisory and teaching support for the residency program, both in the operating room and in resident outpatient clinics devoted to treating a wide range of retinal and vitreous diseases.
