Choosing a programme

How to compare glaucoma training

A useful glaucoma shortlist compares the published clinical focus with the fellow’s role in surgery, resident teaching and research. The programme title alone does not establish case volume or independence.

  • Ask how exposure is divided between adult and pediatric disease, laser treatment and the procedures described in the curriculum.
  • Distinguish the number of fellows training concurrently from the number of new positions each year.
  • Check citizenship, licensure and visa conditions individually; these can differ even between programmes in the same country.
