Comprehensive Fellowship

The Comprehensive Ophthalmology Fellowship is under the direction of Professor Dinesh Selva, Dr Henry Newland & A/Professor Robert Casson at the Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences, Royal Adelaide Hospital and Dr Michael Goggin, Department of Ophthalmology, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

The General Ophthalmology Fellowship is a self funded position available to overseas doctors wishing to gain further experience in all areas of ophthalmology.

The General Ophthalmic Fellow will begin the fellowship as an observer at the Royal Adelaide Hospital and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital whilst the consultants judge the level of experience and responsibility the fellow can handle. Observing will involve both clinical outpatients and theatre sessions. The program for this fellow is negotiable and depends on the interests of the person. The fellow will then be expected to run their own outpatient clinics.

There will be one research session per week during which the Fellow will be required to develop and complete several research projects in conjunction with the supervisors. Funding for presentations at an international meeting is also available. The Fellow is expected to be involved in the teaching of training registrars through tutorials and the OPD theatre.
