Hey everyone, after 2 days I have to make a life changing decision, which is choosing my speciality for residency.

I really like ophthalmo, but I'm someone who has essential tremors and I'm afraid this could be a problem, especially when it comes to surgery. Sometimes my tremors are worse, other times they're better.

My father also has these tremors, but his got much worse as he got older, and that's something that worries me too.

Is there anyone here with essential tremors who chose ophthalmo? Or anyone who knows someone in this situation? I'd really appreciate it if you could share your experience.

ty 🙏

Planning to do DNB in Aravind eye hospital. Can anyone who has a good idea about this hospital rank all the Aravind hospitals location wise, in order of hands on, phacos, and decent workload ?

Hello everyone! I’m looking for guidance regarding the hands-on surgical training and clinical exposure in MS Ophthalmology at government medical colleges in Karnataka.
If you are currently pursuing MS Ophthalmology, have completed your residency, or know someone who is doing their residency at any of these colleges, I would be really grateful if you could share your experience.
I’m particularly interested in knowing about the clinical workload, and overall hands-on training provided to residents.
The colleges I’m interested in are:
Vijayanagara Institute of Medical Sciences (VIMS), Ballari
Kodagu Institute of Medical Sciences, Madikeri
Belagavi Institute of Medical Sciences (BIMS), Belagavi
Shimoga Institute of Medical Sciences (SIMS), Shivamogga
Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical College and Research Institute, Bengaluru
BGS Institute of Medical Sciences, Bengaluru
K.H. Patil Institute of Medical Sciences, Gadag
I would really appreciate any genuine feedback or guidance.
