European Board of Ophthalmology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
EBO

The European Board of Ophthalmology (EBO) is the European professional association for ophthalmology.

Founded in London in 1992, it is a specialised agency of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS). EBO aims to harmonise standards and improve the quality of ophthalmology training across Europe.

Examinations

[edit]

EBO awards the title Fellow of the European Board of Ophthalmology (FEBO) upon success in a specialist clinical examination.[1] In some European countries this test replaces the national certification examination.
