Students will work with residents and faculty at BMC. Activities will involve examining patients in the outpatient clinic and the in-patient consultation service. A clinic work sheet will be used to guide the student in the development of examination skills and to ensure that the student participates with faculty, fellows and residents in a discussion of selected ophthalmic topics. Students will spend time on subspecialty services such as triage, consults, neuro-ophthalmology, retina, glaucoma, pediatric ophthalmology, cornea, and oculoplastics. Students will also have the opportunity to attend ophthalmic procedures in the office and surgical procedures in the operating room. Students will be required to prepare a short (10 minute) slide presentation on a case encountered during their rotation, including a discussion of the differential diagnosis and main clinical teaching points.
