Great topic. Ultimately, if you are an ophthalmologist here are the variables that predict compensation: 1) how hard your are willing to work, 2) how smart and efficient you are capable of working, 3) the team you build around you, 4) your ability to lead, 5) your character as a human being which allows you to effectively interact with your patients and your staff, 6) the amount of elective surgery you do, 7) ownership in the practice, 8) ownership in an ambulatory surgical center, 9) maintaining your emotional and physical health, 10) ownership of your office real estate. Wishing you the best in your career!
This is great, this is the kind of post I was hoping some seasoned ophthalmologists would share! Much appreciated!
I am a medical student and I make roughly negative 100k a year, hope that helps your data haha
Haha I feel that.
Thank you so much for diving into this taboo topic! I’m excited to explore ophthalmology more through research this summer.
Of course. Good luck with your research. I wouldl try to shadow some physicians as well if you have the opportunity during your research.
MS-1 student here and very intrigued by the field of Ophthalmology. Having completed a medical mission trip with an ophthalmologist and shadowed in the clinic I think it is a very interesting field. Would love to see a video of the milestones to meet to become an ophthalmologist now that step 1 is pass/fail completely and all the weight will be on step 2. Also will the weight now fall on more connections and research. Thanks for the inspiration! (I know this idea is a little behind you now but throwing it out there)
Yeah that’s a good video idea. I’ll keep it in mind. Good luck on your medical journey. Cheers
Thank you for sharing! These are really informative. Compensation and future career are seldom informed in the med schools, which is a shame. Do hope we get an ophthalmologist sharing these in Taiwan😂
Loved this, we need more financial transparency everywhere & opportunities to discuss for growth/problem solving to help others ethically
Loved the Video .It s crazy how this topic is never tackled
big ty from Germany
Much appreciated!
Great topic thank you
Absolutely the most informative video!! Gives everyone something to think about 🤔
Thank you!
Thanks for the video doctor, it was very informative. Question around 8:40, are these salaries for different specialties very variable due to the subspecialties within them? For example a retina ophtho or derm MOHS will make far more than their respective salaries listed there
Thank you for this wonderful video to give us some good information about ophthalmology and
the life style of it.❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
It’s really informative….I liked it. You really deserve some appreciation…I followed your content,so I gave a like. Because I liked it, I subscribed to your channel
Much appreciated! I’m glad it helped.
Thank you for another knowledgeable video Dr. Eyeball! Can you please touch on the possibility of ophthalmologists losing these income sources due to any reason (invention of AI/machinery that replaces most of ophthalmologists work (so maybe even if the ophthalmologist is not replaced by the machines the insurance companies still decide to pay much less possibly?), optometrists starting to do surgery (such as laser and etc. in Alaska, Kentucky, Louisiana and Oklahoma currently) or any other reason? Thank you very much greatly for your service once more Dr Eyeball!
Additionally, all my friends and I have subscribed and hope to send support if you could share an account, thank you!
What’s new with AMD? Enjoyed your Justin B video explanation about his eye issue.
Thank you so much for this!!
Of course!
I'm a general Opthalmologist, I have made 7 figures, so around $1mil and $2.5 mil a year, obviously its a lot of work, but it is very realistic and possible.
I’m considering this specialty, how exactly did you make that much?
Thanks for your videos! I have just a quick question. Do you think it is more difficult to match into Ophthalmology coming from a DO school vs an MD one? If so, why?
It’s more difficult. Allopathic schools in general have better reputation. Not saying it should be this way but it is.
Hi! im in the decision of becoming an ophthalmologist.. 😍🥰 Thank for this. Great Help!
Of course! Good luck to you !
Can you tell us about opthalmology oncall hours and days per month of residency year.
Amazing Doctor
Could you describe, if you know, what are the possibilities for: 1. Working as an ophthalmology specialist from Europe (FEBO, PhD); 2. Opportunities for internships in areas such as f.e. retina or oculoplastics. I became interested in this topic after the last AAO in San Francisco. So much so that I will also be attending the AAO in Chicago this year 😅
Doctor how does an ophthalmologist know when to use the femtosecond laser and when to implant toric or multifocal iol?
The laser is sort of a nice add on for some surgeons. Lens selection comes down to the patients refraction and their goals with their vision :)
@@doctoreyeballmd7493 so femtosecond laser has no benefit and doesn't make cataract surgery easier when the case is more complicated?
The best advice I would give the new ophthalmologist is to get ownership in an ASC that is either attached to your office or very close by. You can be very efficient with clinic and surgery that way.
Does any retina specialist perform Transcranial doppler exams?
Eyebright herbal eye wash is a great way to prevent cataracts.
Do eye surgeons typically make more $ via Medicare or private insurance? If ophthalmologists do primary cataract surgery, and insurance doesn’t cover upgrades, it seems like they make the lion share of their $ via Medicare.
Though I'm still not in Pre-Med yet, I've been looking into opening a small hospital in the Midwest designed specifically for eye care. It would have every eye specialty under one roof (Opticians, an Orthoptist, Optometrists, and Ophthalmologists). Depending on the size of the city it is placed in, the hospital would have between 16 and 40 beds.
Thanks
I am a current MS3 and really thinking of going into ophthalmology, however, a recent article found that it's the least diverse specialty. As a Latino student, I question if I would even make it into residency. It would be a great specialty for me to travel to Latin America doing free cataract surgeries.
What about a strabismus specialist salary?
I'm a cataract surgeon in Argentina. I don't have the chance of operating a lot, so I do about 13 cases per week (so about 52 patients per month). If I add the patient's visits at the clinic, which are about 100 per week, so 400 per month; at the end of the month I earn about 1000 dollars. Yep. Our country is destroyed X_X
👍
What is most important in your field? The money you make? Production bonus? Is the patient important or just a cash cow?
The cash for sure
I don't think the chief is worry about u or bread
So the doctor is like other human being yes we are looking for money
