Residency Description:

The Department of Ophthalmology offers a 3-year residency training program conducted at Tulane University Hospital and affiliated hospitals including the Medical Center of Louisiana (Charity Hospital) and the Veterans Affairs Hospitals of New Orleans, Alexandria, and Biloxi.

The objectives of the ophthalmology residency are to enable residents to acquire general medical knowledge, values and attitudes that all physicians should have, as well as to develop specific skills in the diagnosis and management of eye disease. These goals are accomplished through actual patient care experience, didactic teaching and tutorial instruction. Residents undertake gradually increasing responsibility for patient care under the supervision of faculty and develop skills and accumulate knowledge to manage eye problems.
