This journal focuses on research related to the retina and eye, including the study of diseases such as diabetic retinal disease and age-related macular degeneration. It covers topics like visual impairment, therapeutic approaches including gene and stem cell therapies, retinal prosthetics, and electrical stimulation. The journal also explores imaging modalities like optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) for diagnosis and monitoring, as well as the role of inflammation and cellular mechanisms in eye health and disease. Additionally, it addresses aspects of ocular surface reconstruction and the psychosocial and economic burden of vision loss.
