“…53 This is similar to the rate of female presenters reported by Sridhar et al (22.1%) in the six best-attended vitreoretinal meetings 55 and by Lin et al for global retina presenters (25%). 56 Thus, although more women are becoming more active participants in academic meetings overall, the rates vary based on subspecialty, some of which have a larger proportion of women in the field overall (paediatric ophthalmology) and others which the proportion in the field is small (retina).…”

As the field of ophthalmology has evolved in the last several decades, so has the gender distribution of ophthalmologists. We conducted a narrative review to further characterise the status of women in the realm of publication, presentations, editorial positions, grants, academic promotion, and financial compensation. While the proportion of women publishing, presenting, and filling academic and editorial roles has increased over time, it still does not match that of men. Women are more likely to be first authors instead of senior authors, have lower average h‐indices, and are awarded fewer grants. The magnitude of some of these differences is smaller when adjusted for women's shorter career duration on average. Despite increased representation of women in ophthalmology, women continue to receive less compensation for the same work. This review highlights that more can be done to improve gender parity in ophthalmology.
