Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite eye care clinicians, scientists, and researchers to submit their latest works for publication in our upcoming issue on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Ocular Surface Diseases. Advances in imaging, inflammatory markers, artificial intelligence, and personalised medicine are transforming the landscape of ocular surface disease care, offering new avenues for early detection and targeted therapies.

We welcome original research, clinical studies, systematic reviews, and randomised controlled trials that explore innovative diagnostic tools, novel treatment strategies, and the underlying pathophysiology of these conditions. Submissions covering emerging therapeutic agents, surgical interventions, and multidisciplinary approaches to care are especially encouraged.

Join us in advancing the understanding and management of ocular surface diseases to improve patient outcomes worldwide. Submit your manuscript today and contribute to the ongoing evolution of this critical field.
