Uhh... a PhD in opthalmology? I've never heard of such a thing.
PhDs are offered in basic science departments, not clinical departments. You cant get a PhD in surgery.
That being said, some clinical departments have affiliations with basic science depts where you can work in both departments. However, the PHD you are awarded is from the basic science dept, not the clinical dept.
