Purpose: To evaluate the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-Co2) COVID-19 on training of ophthalmology trainees in Egypt and how they could overcome this effect. Method: An online based questionnaire was designed and distributed to a representative sample of ophthalmology trainees in Egypt; their answers were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 574 participants completed questionnaires (61.5%) were residents and (38.5%) were specialists. A majority of the responders (82.1%) participated in COVID-19 control programs and (99.5%) got benefits from excessive infection control programs. Most of the responders experienced a negative effect of COVID-19 lockdown on their training on both surgical (57.3%) and academic (55.6%) levels, but surgical skills were more affected. (86.6%) of the participants thought this effect could be overcome. The most popular choices to overcome this negative effect were online courses (97.7%) and webinars (84.3%).
