The MOS was established in 1911.

The MOS Executive Committee has a President, Secretaries, Junior Representatives and a Treasurer.

The President is usually appointed for a one year term. The President may be an Ophthalmologist chosen from Birmingham or from the wider Midlands.

Secretaries are appointed for a three year term and one is an Ophthalmologist in Birmingham and another based in the wider Midlands.

 

Junior Representatives are appointed for a three year term from the cohort of West Midlands trainees.

The appointed Treasurer is an Ophthalmologist in post for a longer period for logistical reasons.
