The Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences Residency is a five-year Royal College accredited program designed to provide clinical training in a supportive, academic environment. The program provides a solid foundation in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of all major ocular diseases, while equipping participants with a framework for translating the latest research into patient care. The department encourages residents to explore their own interests through investigative research projects conducted in conjunction with a faculty member of their choice. Faculty members also share their expertise with the larger biomedical community through Continuing Medical Education courses, symposiums, and active participation in national and international organizations.
