About Fellowship
The Eye Foundation in Coimbatore offers a one-year full-time Fellowship programme.

The course is structured as a postgraduate degree with rigorous hands-on training in hospital wards, operating rooms, and outpatient departments.

The programme is designed to produce specialists capable of independent clinical practice and academic contributions in ophthalmology.
