Residency Description:

The University of Arizona Ophthalmology Residency Program is located in Tucson, Arizona. Tucson is a medium-sized, sun-belt city where the lifestyle is relaxed, the dress casual, and the cost of living affordable. Leisure activities center around the outdoors and the surrounding desert. The University of Arizona is a huge resource and brings many cultural events to the city.

The University of Arizona Ophthalmology Residency Program is a small, but extremely active resident-focused program. We currently have two residents a year, for a total of six residents throughout the three-year period.

Admission into our program is extremely competitive, as we typically receive over 200 applications for the two positions available each year. Potential residents applying to this program should have strong academic qualifications, interpersonal skills, and research experience. A premium is placed on interpersonal skills and the ability to interact closely with colleagues and peers. We take a great deal of pride in the fact that this program provides an extremely pleasant environment in which to live and work.
