World Sight Day, held annually on the second Thursday of October, is a global event meant to draw attention to blindness and vision impairment. This year’s theme is “Love your eyes at work”.

To further explore related research on World Sight Day 2023, the Journal of Clinical Medicine (JCM, ISSN: 2077-0383) has brought together open access academic articles from the Section “Ophthalmology”. We hope to share new scientific knowledge in the field of eye health with the world on this special day.
