“…The quality and reliability of the questions used were evaluated during the pilot phase. Also, the general data collected here regarding the profile of centers where retinologists perform their task verified the data obtained from the first questionnaire of the Retina 2 Project in 2005 2,3. This concordance of data reinforces the validity of information obtained from this questionnaire.…”

Background:Uniform postresidency systems to train medical specialists have not been developed in most European countries. Before developing a framework for such a system, we established the learning and professional profiles of Spanish ophthalmologists dedicated to medical retina and vitreoretina subspecialties.Methods:After identification of presumed subspecialists by experts from different autonomous regions, a self-administered questionnaire was mailed in 2006. A reminder was sent three weeks later. Postal mail was used. Nonresponder bias was determined.Results:Of 492 possible retina subspecialists, 261 replied to the questionnaires. While about 86% received specific retinal training, standardized fellowship programs were uncommon for both medical retina and vitreoretina (around 10%). Of the responders, 24.5% performed only medical retina, 11.8% vitreoretina, and 63.6% both. Most (60.5%) practiced anterior segment surgery, and 78.7% declared skills in vitrectomy.Conclusion:We have developed a database of Spanish ophthalmologists dedicated to retinal pathologies and identified some characteristics of their professional profile. Although most of them have received specific retinal training, standardized mastership programs are still uncommon. These data will be useful in creating a standardized Retina Mastership, an important goal of the European Higher Education Area.

“…Las primeras preguntas del cuestionario hacen referencia a los datos generales de las instituciones donde ejercen, y dado que la mayoría de ellos (83,8%) declara hacerlo en hospitales del sistema público, parece interesante comprobar que al menos los resultados que se han obtenido respecto a la población de cobertura, la plantilla media de oftalmólogos de cada hospital y número de ellos dedicados a la patología de la retina, coinciden con los obtenidos en otra encuesta enviada a los jefes de servicio y cuyos resultados ya han sido publicados en esta revista (10,11). También es coincidente el que las respuestas provienen mayoritariamente de hospitales públicos docentes.…”
