The Comprehensive Ophthalmology Fellowship Programme offered at Vittala International Institute of Ophthalmology (VIIO) and Prabha Eye Clinic (PEC) spans 18 months and aims to provide thorough exposure to all subspecialties within the field. By the end of the fellowship, trainees are expected to possess the skills necessary to independently manage a basic ophthalmology unit. The final four months of training involve two months of additional rotation in a chosen subspecialty and two months of independent outpatient department (OPD) work at VIIO, supplemented by supervised surgical opportunities. Competencies gained include advanced techniques in refraction such as astigmatism correction, subjective and objective refraction for routine and complex cases, measurement of accommodative power and interpupillary distance, and prescribing multifocal lenses and lenses for children, as well as proficiency in intraocular lens (IOL) calculation algorithms.
