Opthalmology Glaucoma

The Glaucoma Clinical Fellowship at Legacy Health provides training in the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma beyond the standards of a general ophthalmology residency. Fellows gain clinical experience at Devers Eye Institute through exposure to and management of a large number of glaucoma patients within a tertiary care referral practice.

The glaucoma fellow participates in both clinical and basic research through the Discoveries in Sight program at the Legacy Research Institute. Therapeutic interventions extend beyond the typical interventions of a general ophthalmologist and include all surgical therapies for glaucoma, as well as medical interventions.

The fellowship is a personal, preceptor-oriented fellowship offered to suitable candidates with an academic/clinical interest in glaucoma and glaucoma research.

Applicants must have successfully completed an accredited ophthalmology residency program and be eligible for medical licensure in the State of Oregon.

The one-year, AUPO-certified Glaucoma Fellowship participates in the SF Match Ophthalmology Fellowship Match. Additional application details and deadlines may be updated annually through the fellowship match system. Please email Sarah Blatnik with any questions.
