Ophthalmology and IMGs

ANy information regarding which Ophtho-progs in the US are IMG friendly (ie. interview invites and possible acceptances) would be really appreciated.

Check the Irish match list posted at http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=170199 for the programs obtained by a couple of Irish grads.

Good luck.

I posted this already in one of the other forums, but I did, happily enough, match this year in Ophthalmology at LSU-New Orleans... I am a soon-to-be Caribbean grad and Canadian citizen... I would like to emphasize that although I did match, I'd say that ANY program in the US is FAR from IMG friendly... I applied to 60+ places and only received 5 interviews...
