Exclusive cataract surgical focus among ophthalmologists: a population-based analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: Between 1994 and 2016, exclusive cataract surgical focus among ophthalmologists in Ontario rose dramatically from 1 in 10 to 1 in 3 surgeons. This evolution was similar among recent graduates and established ophthalmologists. Our data may have important implications for policies regarding surgeon human resources as well as residency and fellowship training programs. PMID: 32589916 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
