Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Given the unique characteristics of pediatric eye diseases and their profound impact on vision development and overall quality of life, there is an increasing need to explore innovative diagnostic methods, therapeutic approaches, and preventive strategies tailored specifically for children. This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research and comprehensive reviews highlighting recent advancements in diagnosing, managing, and treating ocular conditions in pediatric patients. Topics include genetic and molecular insights, innovative diagnostic tools, novel therapeutic approaches, and preventive strategies. We particularly encourage contributions that emphasize multidisciplinary approaches and translate research findings into clinical practice. This Special Issue seeks to provide valuable insights to enhance the care of children with ocular diseases by bringing together a diverse array of studies and perspectives. We look forward to your submissions that will help shape the future of pediatric ophthalmology and contribute to improving the visual health of children worldwide.

We invite submissions that address a broad range of topics within pediatric ophthalmology, including but not limited to:

  • Genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying pediatric ocular diseases;
  • Novel diagnostic tools and imaging techniques for early detection;
  • Advances in medical and surgical treatment modalities;
  • Long-term outcomes of pediatric ocular interventions;
  • Strategies for preventing vision impairment in children;
  • The impact of systemic diseases on pediatric ocular health;
  • Innovative approaches to managing rare or complex pediatric eye conditions.
