Ophthalmologists will find in this course the perfect opportunity to increase their training and improve in their daily practice" 

The main objective of this course in Anatomy, Physiology, Exploratory and Functional Tests of the Macula, Retina, and Vitreous offered by TECH is to give ophthalmologists and retinologists the opportunity to specialize in this exciting field and learn the main tools they have at their disposal to make a more effective diagnosis in their patients.  

Knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of vision is very important for the understanding of diseases and the symptoms they produce. Therefore, this course aims to train professionals in this field, so that they can perform a quality praxis with their patients. For this purpose, we offer a detailed description of the most current exploratory techniques, which will help the student to put these techniques into practice from the knowledge of how they work. In this way, the in-depth development of these techniques will allow the student to handle all the tools that the new digital devices provide to professionals in this field.

The main tests currently used for the study of the macula are covered in detail in this course, from their primary concepts to the detailed analysis of their software programs and the development of all their analysis possibilities, something essential nowadays to be able to treat macular and retinal pathology.

The course has a teaching staff specialized in ocular pathology and surgery, and who contribute both their practical experience in their day to day private practice, as well as their long experience in teaching at national and international level. In addition, it has the advantage of being a 100% online training, so the student can decide from where to study and at what time to do it. This way, you will be able to flexibly self-direct your study hours. 

This course is the best option you can find to increase your knowledge in ocular disease and give a plus to your professional career"

This postgraduate certificate in Anatomy, Physiology, Exploratory and Functional Tests of the Macula, Retina, and Vitreous has the most complete and updated scientific program in the market. The most important features of the program include:  

• The development of clinical cases presented by experts in ocular pathology and surgery  
• The graphic, schematic, and eminently practical contents with which they are created provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• The presentation of practical workshops on procedures and techniques
• An algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the clinical situations presented throughout the course
• Action protocols and clinical practice guidelines, where the most important novelties in the specialty are disseminated
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, discussion forums on controversial topics and individual reflection papers 
• Special emphasis on evidence-based medicine and research methodologies
• The availability of access to the contents from any fixed or portable device with Internet connection

This course is the best investment you can make in a training to update your knowledge in anatomy, physiology, exploratory, and functional tests of the macula, retina, and vitreous"

It includes in its teaching staff a team of medical professionals, who pour into this training the experience of their work, in addition to recognized specialists belonging to scientific societies of reference.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide an immersive training experience designed to train for real-life situations.

This program is designed around Problem Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. This will be done with the help of an innovative interactive video system created by renowned experts in pathology of the macula, retina, and vitreous, with extensive teaching experience. 

This 100% online course allow you to study from anywhere in the world. All you need is a computer or mobile device with an internet connection"

Our innovative teaching methodology will allow you to study as if you were dealing with real cases, and therefore increasing your training"
