Special Issue on Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a disease that damages your eye's optic nerve. It usually happens when fluid builds up in the front part of your eye. That extra fluid increases the pressure in your eye, damaging the optic nerve.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring glaucoma. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• The effect of ageing on the optic nerve
• Genetic research in glaucoma
• Clinical research in glaucoma
• Glaucoma treatment
• Glaucoma surgery
• Epidemiology

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue – Glaucoma” should be selected during your submission.
