International Ophthalmology

Dartmouth maintains very close ties to Orbis International (the “Flying Eye Hospital”), Aravind Eye Hospital in Madurai, India, and other international care organizations. Several members of the ophthalmology service participate in international ophthalmology missions. Through these connections, interested residents have the opportunity to arrange ophthalmology experiences overseas. A Dartmouth-endowed international travel award helps to fund an experience abroad for 1 PGY-3 or PGY-4 resident annually.
