Cornea Fellowship

This is a one-year clinical fellowship equally weighted between anterior segment surgery, postoperative management, medical external disease and refractive surgery. Surgical experience will be gained in the area of keratoplasty as well as a variety of other surgical procedures, including surgery for pterygia, corneal and conjunctival tumors and refractive surgery. Fellows participate directly in the medical and surgical management of a broad spectrum of medical corneal disorders including microbial keratitis, endophthalmitis, ocular surface disorders, and autoimmune keratopathies. Clinical research and publication is encouraged. Salary and benefits will be commensurate with the other fellowships offered throughout the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. Fellowship positions are filled through Ophthalmology Matching Program and we utilize the Central Application Service. Please contact the matching program at Ophthalmology Fellowship Match , for more information.

Please note: You must have a Florida State Medical license before beginning your Fellowship. You must have passed all 3 parts of the USMLE for a Florida License.

Deadline for receipt of application is September 15th.
