Typically, the observership/visitor experience ranges in duration from several days to a month.

These areas include:

- Glaucoma.
- Neuro-ophthalmology.
- Ophthalmic oncology.
- Ophthalmic plastic and orbital surgery.
- Pediatric ophthalmology and adult strabismus.
- Uveitis.

Reservations are made on a first-come, first-served basis and availability is at the discretion of the faculty. Visiting ophthalmologists are responsible for their financial support and health insurance while at the Cole Eye Institute.
