Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on the diagnosis, progression, and treatment of various eye conditions. Studies investigate the use of artificial intelligence and large language models for disease identification and analysis, as well as the evaluation of structural biomarkers and imaging techniques like optical coherence tomography (OCT) for predicting disease outcomes. Research also explores gene-environment interactions related to refractive error and the development of novel drug delivery systems for ocular conditions.
