In addition to my general ophthalmic training I undertook specialist training in oculoplastic surgery at Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, in 1989 and then undertook further specialist training in oculoplastic, orbital and lacrimal surgery at the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics, Iowa City, Iowa in 1991. This was a 12 month intensive training fellowship with exposure to all aspects of oculoplastic, orbital and lacrimal surgery. I also spent time training with plastic surgeons, ENT surgeons, neurosurgeons and maxillofacial surgeons during the course of my fellowship in the USA. I have worked closely with colleagues in these specialties for over 20 years. I was the preceptor for an oculoplastic and orbital sub-specialty training fellowship at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital for over 20 years.
