Kept their Round 1 seat6

Upgraded to another Ophthalmology seat: they held theirs and chose Float5

Let their seat go and were allotted another Ophthalmology seat in a later round4

Moved to another specialty10

Let their seat go and held no MCC seat after (9 of them were in a state's counselling)9

Another 20 at these AIRs got Ophthalmology only in Round 2, Round 3 or the stray round.

This year so far: 13 Ophthalmology seats ended between AIR 11,649 and 12,678 last year. This year most of them ended within 241 ranks earlier and 2,850 ranks further: about where they did: Kakatiya Medical College, AIR 12,162 last year, AIR 12,405 this year.
