Hi everyone, I am new to the forum. I am hoping to do Nursing then specialise in Ophthalmology. I am really interested in the eye. I was wondering are there any other ways to get into Ophthalmology without doing a Nursing degree? Also, I am from Northern Ireland and I know the RVH has a great reputation for their Ophthalmology dept. So, if any of the Nurses working in this area could give me some insight into what you to on a day-to-day basis. Also, I have a prosthetic left eye and 6/24 vision in my right so would I be able to specialise in Ophthalmology? Many thanks, Tina
