Residency Description:

We appreciate your interest in our Ophthalmology Residency Program. The program has a long and distinguished history, having been established by Edward Jackson M.D., an acknowledged founding father of ophthalmology, in the early 1900's. Dr. Jackson's legacy of sound educational principles for ophthalmology residents continues in our department today. In an ever-changing environment of health care our faculty remain dedicated to providing excellent educational opportunities for residents. The Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Institute (RMLEI) Ophthalmology Residency Program is a 36-month course of training and is fully accredited by the Residency Review Committee of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
