Using Current Procedure Terminology codes, case logs were reviewed in the categories of cornea and keratorefractive surgeries.

The most common procedures logged by residents as primary surgeons were pterygium removal (4.3\u2009\u00b1\u20094.2) and keratorefractive surgeries (3.6\u2009\u00b1\u20096.2). Residents logged an average of 2.4 keratoplasties as primary surgeon, performing an average of 1.4 penetrating keratoplasties (PKs) and 0.8 endothelial keratoplasties (EKs). As assistants, the most common procedures logged were keratorefractive surgeries (6.1\u2009\u00b1\u20094.9), EKs (3.8\u2009\u00b1\u20093.3), and PKs (3.5\u2009\u00b1\u20092.3). Medium or large residency class size was associated with higher cornea procedural volumes (odds ratio: 8.9; 95% confidence interval: 1.1\u201375.6; p\u2009&lt;\u20090.05).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion\u2003The most common cornea surgeries performed by residents include keratoplasty, keratorefractive, and pterygium procedures. Larger program size was associated with greater relative cornea surgery volume. More specific guidelines for logging of procedures could provide a more accurate assessment of resident exposure to critical techniques such as suturing as well as reflect trends in current practice such as the overall increase in EKs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1755317","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,2]],"date-time":"2022-09-02T19:03:41Z","timestamp":1662145421000},"page":"e169-e177","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Exposure of Ophthalmology Residents to Cornea and Keratorefractive Surgeries in the United States"],"prefix":"10.62199","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Brittany C.","family":"Tsou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zachary M.","family":"Eller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine at Howard University, Washington, District of Columbia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael J.","family":"Fliotsos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mary","family":"Qiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, The University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sidra","family":"Zafar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Divya","family":"Srikumaran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kraig","family":"Bower","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fasika A.","family":"Woreta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"48610","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,2]]},"reference":[{"issue":"02","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"128","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1442-9071.2010.02213.x","article-title":"Endothelial keratoplasty -
