Aim & Scope
TheThe Science Set Journal of Ophthalmology and Eye Care (ISSN: 2996-0940) is established with a clear vision to support and promote research that enhances the scientific and clinical understanding of vision, eye diseases, and eye care technologies. The journal aims to provide a dynamic and accessible publishing space for scholars, researchers, and clinicians who contribute to the evolving landscape of ophthalmology and visual science.
Aim of Science Set Journal of Ophthalmology and Eye Care
The primary aim of the journal is to foster scholarly communication and knowledge dissemination across the diverse fields of ophthalmology, optometry, ocular surgery, and vision research. We seek to bring together high-quality research studies that address both basic science and clinical advancements in eye care. By facilitating global dialogue and knowledge sharing, the journal encourages the development and refinement of new diagnostic techniques, treatment approaches, and technological applications in ophthalmic practice.
The journal serves as a reliable source of current, evidence-based information for professionals engaged in eye health. From eye surgeons and clinical specialists to researchers in experimental ophthalmology, our goal is to provide a publication that meets the varied informational needs of this multidisciplinary audience.
Scope of Science Set Journal of Ophthalmology and Eye Care
The Science Set Journal of Ophthalmology and Eye Care covers a wide and inclusive range of topics. It welcomes original research, reviews, technical reports, and clinical case studies that align with any of the following domains:
1. Clinical Ophthalmology
Studies focused on diagnosis, medical and surgical management of common and rare ocular conditions. Topics include cataracts, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, retinal vascular disorders, dry eye disease, and uveitis.
2. Pediatric and Geriatric Eye Care
Research related to congenital eye anomalies, developmental eye disorders, and age-associated degenerative conditions. Special focus is given to early detection and intervention in both pediatric and elderly populations.
3. Ocular Surgery and Microsurgical Techniques
Innovative methods and outcomes in procedures such as LASIK, cataract extraction, corneal transplantation, and minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries.
4. Vision Science and Optometry
Submissions that explore the mechanics of vision, visual perception, refractive error correction, contact lenses, and behavioral aspects of vision care.
5. Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics
Research evaluating pharmacological agents used in the treatment of ocular diseases. This includes anti-VEGF therapies, corticosteroids, antibiotic resistance in ocular infections, and drug delivery innovations.
6. Neuro-Ophthalmology
Investigations into visual field loss, optic nerve pathologies, and visual complications arising from systemic neurological disorders.
7. Corneal and External Disease
Studies that explore keratitis, conjunctivitis, blepharitis, ocular allergies, and corneal dystrophies, as well as updates on treatment modalities and emerging pathogens.
8. Retinal Imaging and Diagnostic Tools
Development and application of imaging tools like optical coherence tomography (OCT), scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, ultrasonography, and angiography in diagnosing and monitoring ocular diseases.
9. Public Health Ophthalmology
Articles addressing the epidemiology of eye diseases, barriers to access, and global eye care initiatives aimed at reducing preventable blindness and improving community-level vision care.
10. Ocular Genetics and Molecular Biology
Explorations into the genetic and molecular underpinnings of inherited eye conditions, with an emphasis on gene therapy, biomarkers, and personalized medicine in ophthalmology.
11. Biomedical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence in Eye Care
Submissions involving AI-assisted diagnostic tools, machine learning models for image analysis, robotics in surgery, and the integration of smart technologies in routine eye examinations.
Types of Manuscripts Considered
To ensure comprehensive coverage of topics, the journal welcomes a broad spectrum of scholarly submissions:
- Original Research Articles: Empirical studies reporting novel findings in experimental, clinical, or translational ophthalmology.
- Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: In-depth evaluations of existing literature to clarify prevailing trends or treatment outcomes.
- Case Reports and Case Series: Detailed presentations of rare or novel clinical observations and the lessons they offer.
- Clinical Trials: Reports of interventional studies assessing new treatment modalities or medical devices in ophthalmic settings.
- Technical Reports: Focused contributions that describe innovative surgical techniques, diagnostic procedures, or instrument validation.
- Short Communications: Concise papers addressing highly focused research outcomes or preliminary results that warrant rapid dissemination.
Global Scope and Accessibility
The journal encourages global participation and supports submissions from both developed and developing nations. Eye care is a worldwide priority, and the challenges of ocular disease and vision loss require solutions informed by diverse geographic and demographic perspectives. We promote inclusivity by welcoming data and experiences from low-resource settings and rural health environments, recognising their critical role in shaping the future of global ophthalmology.
All published content is made available through open access, enabling physicians, educators, scientists, students, and policymakers to benefit from the research without barriers.
