Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advances and innovations in ophthalmic optics technology have greatly changed our perception of the outside world and our understanding of our sensory system. It has played critical roles in diverse fields, from fundamental and exploratory research in vision science and molecular biology to applications in medicine and healthcare for vision restoration and gene therapy, even offering new possibilities for psychotherapy and entertainment. To increase the impact of this unique realm in biomedical optics, we are pleased to launch this Special Issue to bring together leading experts and communicate the recent advances, current challenges, and prospects of ophthalmic optics techniques and applications, including the broad range of opportunities it offers in a multi-disciplinary environment. Original research articles and review articles are both welcome. Topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following areas:

  • Ophthalmic OCT/OCTA;
  • Ophthalmic adaptive optics imaging;
  • Ophthalmic fluorescence imaging;
  • Ophthalmic optical system design;
  • Optoretinography;
  • Optics for ophthalmic surgery;
  • Clinical ophthalmic imaging;
  • Contact or intraocular lens;
  • Adaptive optics visual simulator;
  • Virtual and augmented reality.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Photonics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
