"I couldn't be more pleased that my colleagues recognize the exceptional nature of our residency program," said Moran's Vice Chair of Education Jeff Pettey, MD. "Our philosophy is to provide time and resources for residents to pursue their individual professional development. Because we listen and provide support, our residents accomplish amazing things."

Moran's selects four residency applicants from a pool of more than 400 each year. While nationally ophthalmology residents must perform 86 cataract surgeries the average is 140 Moran residents each perform nearly 300 cataract surgeries and a range of 300 subspecialty surgeries, all supervised by board-certified attending faculty.
