New Diagnostic and Therapeutic Developments in Eye Diseases

Dear Colleagues,

Ophthalmology has been at the forefront of medical innovation due to its unique demand for device-assisted diagnostics and microsurgery. The recent technological developments have radically impacted the daily practice of ophthalmologists thanks to the advent of novel diagnostic and therapeutic tools that facilitate an early diagnosis, allowing a better management of ocular disorders. The use of modern devices does not only permit the earlier detection of eye diseases but allows ophthalmologists to offer more individualized treatment to their patients.

In this Topical Collection, we are looking for research including new findings in the fields of diagnostic and therapeutic developments in eye diseases. Our goal is to discuss, amongst others, diagnostic imaging, molecular-pathology diagnosis (biomarkers), artificial-intelligence diagnosis, and innovative treatment options in the field of ophthalmology. 

Primarily, we welcome submissions of high-quality original research articles showing new developments and innovative findings about these topics. Secondarily, we will consider high-interest review articles and case series of exceptional merit.
