Abstract

SummaryThe EBO has gained worldwide respect for its efforts on harmonizing education and training in general ophthalmology within Europe. The comprehensive EBO Diploma examination, awards successful candidates the title of the Fellow of the European Board of Ophthalmology (FEBO), and is the most evident result of such efforts. More recently the EBO has established a Subspecialty European Board of Ophthalmology Diploma Examination (FEBOS) with the goal to increase standards of knowledge and care in various subspecialties. The first of these subspecialty examinations to be introduced is in the field of glaucoma and is developed in close collaboration with the European Glaucoma Society (EGS). The FEBOS‐Glaucoma examination and diploma represent a logical continuation of the efforts in providing sustainable education and glaucoma care within Europe led by the EGS.The goals, the organisation and requirements to sit the subspecialty exam as well as the first experience with the FEBO‐Glaucoma exam and Diploma will be presented.
