Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Corneal diseases remain a significant global cause of visual impairment, with advancements in surgical techniques, diagnostics, and therapeutic strategies continually reshaping clinical practice. This Special Issue, “Clinical Research in Management of Corneal Diseases”, aims to highlight the latest innovations and evidence-based approaches in corneal surgery and transplantation.
The field of corneal surgery has witnessed remarkable progress, not only in terms of refinement of corneal transplantation techniques but also other surgical innovations and treatment paradigms. The integration of artificial intelligence and even robotics is promising.
This Special Issue welcomes original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and clinical studies in corneal surgery. We invite researchers and clinicians to contribute their expertise and insights to this Special Issue, fostering a deeper understanding of the evolving landscape of corneal disease management.
