Moorfields is a major force in ophthalmic teaching in the UK, for students, ophthalmologists and other health professionals. Medical education is an integral part of the Moorfields mission.

Regular courses in various specialist areas are run at the main site at City Road, London, many of them in association with the Institute of Ophthalmology. The Trust also teaches specialist ophthalmic nursing courses, and there is a regular teaching timetable for resident staff. Special one-off courses are also organised from time to time. All our organised courses are listed in this section.

The Trust provides extensive sub-speciality training in all types of modern ophthalmology to a substantial number of fellows, some of whom are from the UK and Europe, with others coming from as far as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India and Brazil.

Moorfields also welcomes doctors from around the world to observe its renowned treatment of eye diseases and injuries. 

Please note any enquiries regarding fellowships or residency should be addressed to the Trust's personnel department. Please telephone them on 020 7253 3411.
