Hello Gemechu Gobena,
The ophthalmic and vision research must be conducted within the UK. However, with appropriate justification, a small amount of time can be spent outside the UK to travel to collaborators and learn the techniques necessary for the project. The application form should clearly state and justify the plans and costs. For more information and eligibility criteria, please refer to the application page.
