Welcome to the site for the University of Florida College of Medicine–Jacksonville retina-vitreous fellowship program.

Our mission is to provide fellows not only the best possible education in the science of retina-vitreous diseases, but to train excellent professionals with high ethical standards and values. The department is well-equipped with the most modern, state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic instrumentation to deliver quality care and education.

The program is a two-year program associated with a high volume, primary and referral based retina-vitreous university practice.

In addition to the above professional opportunities, Jacksonville is an ideal place to live and work. It is home to abundant beaches, unlimited outdoor sports and the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars.
