Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of various retinal and vitreous diseases. Research includes the use of advanced imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) to assess microvascular changes, retinal structure, and function. Studies also investigate therapeutic interventions such as anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents, biosimilars, surgical procedures, and novel drug delivery methods. Furthermore, the journal explores the application of artificial intelligence in diagnosing and managing retinal conditions and examines the ocular manifestations of systemic diseases and genetic disorders.
