Questions to ask before you apply

• 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.

These are editorial prompts for comparing programmes, not requirements set by this institution.
