The Fellowship Insights Blog

What becomes obvious when you look at hundreds of fellowship experiences together.

​​An individual review tells you about one program.

 

But when you collect reviews from many programs and speak to many fellows over time, patterns begin to emerge.

 

Fellowship Insights looks at those patterns- training exposure, duration, stipends, specialities, short term programs and other aspects of Ophthalmology training that are easier to understand when you look beyond a single fellowship. Check out the articles below.

About IOFAR

IOFAR is a database of reviews of Ophthalmology fellowships and training programs in India.​

​

IOFAR was created to make information about Ophthalmology training programs and fellowships easier to find and easier to evaluate.

 

The reviews on IOFAR are based on direct conversations with fellows and residents and reflect their individual experiences and opinions.

 

IOFAR does not suggest that doing a fellowship is necessary. Its purpose is simply to provide information, so that if you are considering a program, you can make your own decision with better information.
