Fellowship on Contact Lens
Fellowship on Contact Lens exists because reading about National and actually doing it are two very different skills. This course closes that gap through direct, supervised surgical exposure. Participants work in small batches so every trainee gets meaningful console time, not just observation hours. Sessions combine ICO-OSCAR scored assessments, structured video discussion of recorded cases, and one-on-one feedback from senior faculty after every procedure. Graduates of this track consistently report that the structured feedback — not just the volume of cases — is what made the difference in how quickly they became independently competent. Batch sizes are announced in advance on a rolling basis, and early enrollment is recommended since seats at the flagship Kolkata centre in particular fill up well ahead of each intake.

Description
- ➜Susrut Eye Foundation & Research Centre has been conducting structured surgical training since 2010, with a specific focus on measurable, repeatable outcomes rather than one-off workshops.
- ➜The SUSRUT training system has produced more than a thousand trained ophthalmologists across India and abroad, many of whom now train others using the same structured method.
- ➜Faculty-to-trainee ratios are kept deliberately low throughout this programme so feedback stays specific and immediate rather than generic.
