Choosing a programme

How to compare cornea training

Cornea, external disease, anterior segment and refractive surgery can appear in the same fellowship title. Use the curriculum to identify the skills and patient groups each programme actually covers.

  • Look for the balance of corneal transplantation, ocular surface care, cataract and refractive surgery in the official curriculum.
  • Compare clinical and research pathways separately, including optional extensions and any protected research time.
  • Confirm medical licensure and the application route with the host institution before relying on a match listing.
