OPHT 204: Ophthalmology Microsurgical Curriculum for Medical Students

Microsurgical training and development in technical skills is an integral part of residency training amongst a variety of specialties including ophthalmology. Medical students often acquire a diverse exposure to general surgical skills, but may lack the opportunity to gain direct experience in microsurgical techniques. This curriculum will provide didactics within a small-group setting regarding microsurgical instruments, suturing and knot-tying techniques, as well as hand son practice suturing under a microscope. The goal of the course is to provide exposure of microsurgical techniques to medical students to serve as a decision-making aid for residency interest.

VISITING: Open to visitors.TYPE OF CLERKSHIP: Selective 1. DESCRIPTION: Does the thought of evaluating diplopia, eye pain, or vision loss in a patient give you palpitations? This is the rotation for you. Offers a hands on, comprehensive experience focused on sharpening clinical eye examination skills and rationally evaluating ophthalmic conditions and problems. Students will examine patients with a variety of common and uncommon eye conditions, teach patients about their eye diseases, and learn to recognize situations that warrant referral to an ophthalmologist. Learning is enhanced through digital imaging techniques based on anterior and posterior segment ocular visualization, as well as newer modalities such as optical coherence tomography. Location is in lovely wine country in Livermore, with a cottage available for lodging, so your commute is to walk across the driveway, avoiding the wild turkeys. In addition to educational materials supplied during the rotation, students can also more »
