Summary The European Board of Ophthalmology ( EBO ) has recently decided to promote, at the European level, a subspecialty diploma in some selected areas of Ophthalmology. The first subspecialty diploma is related to Glaucoma. The guidelines for this kind of diploma have been developed with the European Glaucoma Society, because the aim of EBO is to have the already existing European subspecialty Societies (European Glaucoma Society, Euroepan Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, EURETINA , …) as the driver of the EBO Subspeciality examination. The characteristics of the examination, and any information related to the curriculum and major requirements to sit the exam will be presented.
