60% of resident training for Ophthalmology in India is done under government organizations, while the remaining are private organizations. Training imparted during this period is in various settings, mostly medical colleges and private institutes.  The training does not follow a coherent system, as a result of which the quality of training can vary enormously from institute to institute.  The basic idea, however, is to ensure that residents are made to observe varieties of ophthalmic surgeries in medical retina, refractive procedures, oculoplastic surgery, squint surgery, implant, routine ocular trauma, and other related procedures to help them develop an interest when the time comes to select a field of interest for a fellowship. Wherever possible, residents are also made to perform some of these procedures under supervision.
