With the professional master’s degree in Clinical Ophthalmology, you have the opportunity to update your knowledge comfortably and without sacrificing scientific accuracy, in order to incorporate the latest advances in the approach to ocular diseases into your daily medical practice"

Vision Science in general, which includes Optics, Optometry, Ocular Pharmacology, and Ophthalmology in particular, has experienced spectacular progress over the last ten years, together with significant technological development in the field. There have been noteworthy advances in treatment of pathologies that, until recently, were major causes of blindness, such as cataracts, glaucoma, and alterations and degeneration of the retina and the macula.

All branches of ophthalmologic surgery have undergone changes that have completely transformed the approach to the pathologies associated with the field. The introduction of new scanning techniques, both in the anterior segment of the eyeball and in the posterior segment, has improved the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases, and allows the efficacy of treatment to be tracked. Diseases for which there was no treatment a decade ago are now effectively treated, such as age-related macular degeneration.

All these rapid advances are the result of multidisciplinary collaboration between seemingly unrelated disciplines such as Ophthalmology, Physics, Cell Biology, Bioengineering, Biochemistry, Optics, and Pharmacology, all of which justify the existence of this professional master’s degree program.
