Why Are Female Eye Docs Getting Fewer Surgeries?

Just learned that female ophthalmology residents are doing noticeably fewer cataract surgeries than their male peers—like, 4.4% fewer over a decade! The study didn’t find the same gap for underrepresented minorities in cataract cases, but there was still a difference in total surgeries. The big takeaway? Training opportunities aren’t equal, and experts say fixing this could help keep more women and diverse docs in the field. Feels like a wake-up call for med training! #WomenInMedicine #MedicalTraining #Surgery #Ophthalmology #DiversityInMedicine #Health
