As part of Medicals International's commitment to advancing innovation in eye care, a specialized Refractive Surgery fellowship program was launched in 2022, providing advanced training for promising ophthalmologist.
After finalizing his Master's degree in Ophthalmology at Ain Shams University in Cairo and his residency at the National Eye Center in Cairo, Dr. Gendy was selected as our first Fellow under the supervision and guidance of a world-renowned refractive surgeon, Professor Shady Awwad
Dr. Gendy gained in-depth expertise in the latest techniques for laser-assisted vision correction procedures such as LASIK and PRK. He was also trained in areas where training opportunities are scarce, including therapeutic refractive surgery, such as Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS) as well as Wavefront-Guided Trans-PRK (WG-TPRK) for patients with Keratoconus.
Moreover, he had the privilege to participate in cutting-edge research and development.
This is a special celebration for us all at Medicals International. The Medicals International Refractive Surgery Fellowship at AUBMC is the pinnacle of our achievements after 30 years of commitment to excellence in ophthalmology, and it serves as a testimony to our core values and commitment to advancement in education to accompany technological development and to ensure our valued patients get served with optimally trained and informed professionals and industry.
