Last year, 52 students at AIR 20,747 to 22,879 were allotted Ophthalmology in Round 1. By the last round:

Kept their Round 1 seat6

Upgraded to another Ophthalmology seat: they held theirs and chose Float7

Let their seat go and were allotted another Ophthalmology seat in a later round15

Moved to another specialty12

Let their seat go and held no MCC seat after (10 of them were in a state's counselling)12

Another 53 at these AIRs got Ophthalmology only in Round 2, Round 3 or the stray round.

This year so far: 21 Ophthalmology seats ended between AIR 20,747 and 22,879 last year. This year most of them ended within 1,075 ranks earlier and 1,772 ranks further: about where they did: Govt. Medical College, Kolkata, AIR 21,506 last year, AIR 22,210 this year.
