Paediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus Fellowship review @ Comtrust Charitable Trust Eye Hospital, Kozhikode, Kerala

Duration -1.5 years

In this 1.5 years, you will get to see all types of cases in pediatric, strabismus and neuro- ophthalmology.

OP numbers are very high so will be hectic also. You will start seeing individual OP from second or 3rd month. 

OT starts after 3 months. You will get enough hands on for strabismus cases, especially for recti muscles. Oblique muscle surgeries depends on your skill.

For SICS- will have to share camp cases with PGs. 

If you have enough exposure in SICS, you can get Phaco also but the numbers will be less.

No training in pediatric cataract cases.

Academics is good as madam HOD is interested in conferences and classes.

General Casualty duties and camp duties will be there once or twice a month. Any pediatric injury case will have to be attended by the fellow at night also. So will have to pick a stay near the hospital.

The working atmosphere is good.

If you have real interest in strabismus and pediatric ophthal, Comtrust is a really good option.
