I attend UOG Francis Close Hall campus and it's so incredibly inspiring. It's a great oldy-worldy historical site and it was really the deal-breaker for me choosing UOG; although my course mates and I were severely let down when we were told we would have to move to Oxstalls campus in Gloucester... we managed to get the union involved but only managed to get it pushed back a year for us, all new students in September for social science will be in Oxstalls and won't get to experience the beauty of FCH. Such a shame. Despite this, the facilities are amazing, staff are equipped with great knowledge and are all incredibly friendly. All students are friendly and light-minded, it's a great environment to study in and socialise. I commute so I cannot speak on the social side of student accommodation and/or going out, but as a commuter it meets all my needs! I really recommend studying here, the lecturers know what they're talking about, and are amazing at illustrating theories and concepts in ways that make sense.

Studying opthamology provides an understanding of the methods and practices for diagnosing, treating, and preventing eye diseases. Through courses in visual optics, eye anatomy and physiology, and pharmacology you can expect to gain the necessary skills needed to provide patients with the best possible care. With a degree in opthamology, you can anticipate developing the knowledge required to understand concepts such as vision testing, refractive errors, and retinal imaging while exploring emerging areas such as laser surgery and contact lens fitting. You'll also have the ability to apply your findings in various fields such as ophthalmic clinics, private practice settings, and research laboratories.
