Aims & Scope
Clinical Ophthalmology is an international, open access, peer-reviewed journal covering all subspecialties within ophthalmology, including ophthalmic clinical practice, visual science, and innovations in surgical techniques. The journal’s audience includes ophthalmologists, optometrists, orthoptists, and researchers interested in advancing eye care, visual science, and patient outcomes. The journal has a special interest in topics such as pharmacology and drug therapy in eye diseases, patient safety and quality of care improvements, and eye health promotion. Authors are invited to submit their work to dedicated sections of the journal, including cataract, retina, and general ophthalmology. Authors are required to provide imaging and diagnostic studies regarding their clinical findings. Basic science studies, such as cell biology and genetics studies, must have direct clinical relevance. Additionally, the journal does not accept pure, non-human animal studies or case reports/series, which are to be redirected to the International Medical Case Reports Journal. The journal welcomes for consideration the following article types: original research, reviews, editorials, commentaries, clinical trial reports, and protocols.
