Comprehensive Ophthalmology and Refractive Surgery Fellowship
This is a one-year clinical and research fellowship program working with Dr. Amr Kouchouk (anterior segment and refractive surgeon) at a private practice near Los Angeles. This fellowship offers a unique opportunity to be a part of a great team in a co-management setting with optometrists and PCPs in the community. The ideal fellow is an MD who would like to match into ophthalmology. The program will include 4-6 weeks of direct shadowing with Dr. Kouchouk, learning exactly how he manages clinical patients. Fellows will learn directly how to be comfortable in managing the most common diagnoses encountered in clinic, including cataracts, glaucoma, LASIK/ICL, dry eye, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and keratoconus.
Following the 6-week shadowing, if we determine the candidate is ready, they will be eligible for a 9-15 month (timing is flexible on next year's match) pre-residency fellowship. During this time, they will be managing their own clinic, with supervision, where they will present their management plan directly to an attending. During the pre-residency fellowship, the MD will get the true experience of what it's like to be an ophthalmology resident, an extremely unique opportunity that doesn't exist anywhere else! They will manage clinic, and also learn and perform laser procedures if they are ready, including SLT, YAG capsulotomies, and YAG PI's.
The fellow will have access to world-class equipment and technology, including OCT, topography, clarus fundus photos, IOL 700, wavescan, auto rx/digital phoropter, and slit lamp cameras. In addition, they will get access to an RXSIGHT Light Delivery Device and learn how to work with post-Light Adjustable Lens patients, a machine that is only available in less than about 5% of clinics across the U.S. Also, they will be able to learn all about dry eye from Dr. Kouchouk, who is a national speaker on the subject with multiple companies, and have access to the Inmode Envision device, which delivers Radio Frequency and IPL for treating dry eye.
The fellow will be able to manage pre-op and post-op refractive surgery patients, including LASIK, SMILE, ICL, PRK, and Refractive Lens Exchange.
There will also be a research component to the fellowship, and the fellow will be able to be added as a sub-investigator on several trials.
The one-year program is aimed to start July-August 2024. This will be a full-time schedule, and there will be adequate time off for interviewing for a residency position. This is a funded position with a basic stipend of $42,000, as well as incentive-based pay.
With successful engagement in the program, the fellow can expect a great letter of recommendation and full support utilizing Dr. Kouchouk’s connections to assist in getting an ophthalmology residency spot.

University of North Carolina
Ophthalmology Research Fellowship
This is a one-year research fellowship program with Dr. David Fleischman (glaucoma) and Dr. Alice Zhang (surgical retina) at UNC. The program offers an opportunity to participate in research at the institution and to meet and be part of a great team of ophthalmologists. This program has been in place for the past 7 years. The majority of students who came through were successful in securing an ophthalmology residency the very next year (10 out of 11) and four became UNC residents.
The research fellow will help take over projects that are ongoing and not yet completed by our current fellows. The year is aimed to begin in March/April 2022 until April 2023 (can be altered depending on your needs). Projects are mostly clinical, some requiring review of databases, others requiring recruitment and interaction with patients in the clinical setting. During your research year, you will also have the opportunity to shadow in the OR and in the clinic, and attend resident teaching and wet lab sessions.
Both supervisors are excited to mentor you towards the next step in your career. You will be given sufficient time off needed to attend all interviews. Please send an email to UNC_Ophtho@med.unc.edu with a few sentences outlining what you hope to gain out of this research year. If you applied to UNC through SF match, please specify your SF ID#, otherwise please forward your CAS application. The program will begin reviewing applications on a rolling basis until February 23, 2022.

Pre-Residency Glaucoma Research Fellowship
Systems genetics analysis aims to identify novel genes responsible for the development or progression of complex diseases, such as glaucoma, based on statistical correlations between gene expression and phenotypic variation.
The research fellow will learn the basis of systems genetics analysis and conduct in silico experiments using GeneNetwork, an online free-to-access genome database. The fellow will be responsible for all questions, experiments, figure design, and manuscript writing related to systems genetics. The fellow will also learn other basic science research skills, such as animal handling and dosing, paraffin embedding, sectioning, and immunohistochemical staining and imaging, and should be willing to help other lab members in these responsibilities from time to time. The fellow may also have the responsibility of teaching medical students about systems genetics and guiding them in their own summer research projects. Prior experience with biostatistics, coding in R, Adobe Photoshop, and Prism are helpful, but not required. The fellow will have the opportunity to present their research at the Hamilton Eye Institute Summer Research Symposium and at ARVO in the Spring, with support from the lab.
Clinical opportunities include one half-day per week spent in the resident clinic examining and working up patients under the direct supervision of the residents as well as one half-day per week spent in the operating room with various clinical faculty, including the residency program director. The fellow will have the opportunity to give at least one Friday morning grand rounds presentation to the residents and faculty of the residency program. Volunteer opportunities with the Mid-South Lions Club are available and encouraged. An interview with the UTHSC residency program is not guaranteed, however the track record of matching research fellows to ophthalmology residency programs is very strong.
The ideal candidate is individually motivated, hardworking, easy to work with, and capable of learning several new skills.
