The American Academy of Ophthalmology has announced last week its launch of Ophthalmology® Glaucoma, a new scientific journal focused exclusively on glaucoma. As development of next-generation glaucoma tools and treatments increases, Ophthalmology Glaucoma offers researchers a new opportunity to publish high-quality, original research of interest to glaucoma specialists around the world.
The Academy will publish Ophthalmology Glaucoma in partnership with the American Glaucoma Society. The partnership serves the mission of both organizations to advance scientific research and improve patient care. Henry Jampel, M.D., serves as editor-in-chief. Dr. Jampel is a professor of ophthalmology at the Wilmer Eye Institute of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Dr. Jampel has assembled an editorial board comprised of some of the leading scientists within the field of glaucoma research.
All accepted Ophthalmology Glaucoma manuscripts will be available immediately online (accepted manuscript version prior to copy-editing). The inaugural issue will be available online on Aug.13, with the print version mailed on Aug.15. A new issue will publish every other month. Authors seeking submission information can email [email protected].
