Hello aspirant,

Ophthalmology is a medical specialty that has gotten a lot of attention in recent years. An ophthalmologist is a medical specialist who specialises in vision and eye care. Despite the fact that ophthalmology is a relatively new field of study, there are a plethora of ophthalmology courses available after 12th in India, with a diverse variety of career options for graduates.

For students interested in becoming doctors, the MBBS programme is a 5.5-year programme. All applicants must take the NEET UG exam. To become an ophthalmologist, you must first complete an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) programme, after which you must pursue an ophthalmology postgraduate degree, such as an MS (Master of Surgery) or an MD (Doctor of Medicine) (Doctor of Medicine).

You have not mentioned the Caste Category you belongs to, so I'm considering it as General Category and providing information based on it.

It is difficult to predict because cut-offs changes from year to year and depends on many factors like category, number of students appeared in the exam, difficulty level of the exam, number of seats available, etc.

To check the possibility of getting DNB Ophthalmology seat for your NEET PG rank, you can use below mentioned College Predictor Tool. Probability you might get seat in decent Colleges.

You can predict Colleges your friend can get for NEET PG score using below mentioned College Predictor Tool.
