Impact of a structured oculoplastic surgery rotation on specialist training in oral and maxillofacial surgery

Specialist training in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) lasts five years and during this time trainees are expected to gain exposure to a number of subspecialties.1 While oculoplastic surgery is not listed as a subspecialty module in the OMFS specialist training curriculum there is obvious overlap with skin and aesthetic surgery modules.2 In our unit we are fortunate to have a close relationship with the oculoplastic surgery team. During their four-month rotation in trauma, trainees attend a theatre session in oculoplastic surgery for one day/week (about three/month).
