Questions and Answers

A prep website for ACVO/ECVO boards and just an overall resource for residents or resident-wannabes to help them in their journey to get boarded or good at ophthalmology.

Gerald is the creative director's cat. ~10 yo MN basic brown tabby who had his eye enucleated when just a wee kitten. See his handsome photos on his IG (@studywithgerald).

Mmm yes and no - officially these questions are probably not a perfect reflection of what's on the exam. For one thing, the reference material is strictly limited to publicly available journal abstracts (for a variety of reasons - cost and sheer volume of information mostly) and exam question writers are probably not just deriving questions from abstracts alone. On the other hand, if the abstracts contain good, clinically-relevant, or important concepts related to the study - that info might appear on the exam and the questions generated from this information may be a reasonable simulcrum of what you will encounter.

The goal is to give people a means of reviewing what they know (or more importantly what they don't) in a way that simply highlighting journal articles and re-reading things can't achieve. And to do so conveniently (this site is designed with a mobile-first philosophy).

Maybe one day!! Images are tricky because anything from a journal is going to be copyrighted (and hence we can't host it without permission from publishers and yeah, like good luck with that). Maybe we can do a small section of instruments or histo but it'll likely be minimal for the short term. Initial efforts will focus on text-based from Gelatt and journal articles (first from VO then AVMA, AJVR, secondary journals).
