Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Many recent advances have been made in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases.
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish new evidence, as well as to review the current state-of-the-art developments, in the diagnosis and treatment of vision-threatening diseases. These include the following: cornea and external disease; vitreoretinal disease; uveitis; ocular oncology; glaucoma; neuro-ophthalmology; and oculoplastics and orbital disease.
Potential cutting-edge topics might include, but are not limited to, the following: new and evolving imaging modalities (including swept-source optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography), medical therapies (including the new complement inhibitor therapies for geographic atrophy), and surgical approaches.
We are soliciting both new research projects as well as comprehensive review articles of clinically important topics. We are especially interested in the differences in practice patterns between the different parts of the world. For example, endophthalmitis prophylaxis and treatment techniques differ considerably in different geographic locations.
This Special Issue is a continuation of the Special Issue “Ophthalmology: New Diagnostic and Treatment Approaches” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/medicina/special_issues/374PR2P11D).
