The New Technologies in Ophthalmology section of Frontiers in Ophthalmology is excited to launch this Research Topic dedicated to high-quality scholarly review articles exploring the transformative impact of cutting-edge technologies across the field.
Reviews in New Technologies in Ophthalmology seeks to highlight recent breakthroughs, address ongoing challenges, and identify future opportunities poised to advance both research and clinical practice. By curating authoritative review articles, this collection aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and drive progress towards preventing vision loss through innovative technological solutions.
We welcome full-length, mini, and systematic reviews spanning a wide range of topics, including but not limited to: • Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning applications in ocular diagnostics and care • Biophotonics and advanced optical imaging technologies • Computational methods for analyzing ophthalmic data • Innovative drug-delivery systems for ocular therapies • Gene therapy and optogenetics in vision restoration and treatment • Low vision rehabilitation technologies and strategies • Nanoscience and nanotechnology applications in ophthalmology • Non-invasive assessment and monitoring of the visual system • Development and implementation of ophthalmic devices and imaging modalities (hardware and software) • Advanced surgical materials, tools, and procedures (including laser-based treatments) • Virtual reality or assisted reality devices for ophthalmic education and patient engagement
