Perdami YO-Share vol III October 2020

Life is about creating and living experiences that are worth sharing. We are beyond glad to see the enthusiasm of the young ophthalmologists to connect with others by sharing their fellowship experiences. That was why we present this second fellowship edition of the Perdami YO-Share.

In this edition, you could find thorough experiences of YOs during their fellowship inside and outside the country. Let their stories inspire you, and they are even more worthwhile if you aim to walk the same path. You could also take a closer look at the interview session that we’ve had with two experts in fellowship education and get the essentials.

Look what’s inside the survey section to know what YOs think about fellowship and their favorite subspecialties. For YOs who plan to undergo an international fellowship program, you should not miss the tips section, where our colleagues share their to-do- list before going abroad for fellowship.

We cannot stop ourselves from serving you a rich selection of articles, so we got two brand-new sections for you. In the activities section, YOs from each YO-division shared their excitement in what they’re doing. Moreover, a literature-based article regarding the eye health issue during the pandemic era, a trending topic nowadays, is in the Covid-corner section.

We are truly grateful to have the continued support from the President of the Indonesian Ophthalmologists Association (PERDAMI), Mohamad Sidik, MD; the Perdami YO Chairman, Muhammad Bayu Sasongko, MD, M.Epid, Ph.D.; as well as our mentor, Rina La Distia Nora, MD, Ph.D., thus allowing our team to grow and publish this third edition of Perdami YO-Share. Our heartfelt thank also goes to all the contributors for their brilliant writings.

Enjoy exploring and see you in 2021
