Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of integrated training in ophthalmology for fifth-year medical students. Traditionally, medical education has focused on faculty expertise, often neglecting the clinical importance of irrelevant details.

Results showed that students trained with integrated learning scored significantly higher on their final exams compared to those trained conventionally. Additionally, satisfaction among students increased significantly after implementing integrated teaching. Over the past eight years, our department has incorporated integrated teaching into the curriculum, emphasizing interactive assessment and small group learning for both clinical and theoretical training in ophthalmology
