Personalized Medicine in Ophthalmic Diseases: Updated Challenges and Opportunities

Dear Colleagues,

Medical practice in ophthalmology is always advancing. With the continuous development of novel diagnostic and treatment technologies, such as gene therapy, imaging modalities, nanotechnology, and molecular treatment, and by using artificial intelligence, we hope to gain access to a more personalized form of ophthalmic care for our patients.

This Special Issue aims to facilitate the understanding of the challenges that ophthalmic diseases present and how they affect each patient, while also providing the opportunity of sharing and discussing recent ophthalmological knowledge in a comprehensive manner.   

Therefore, we invite you to contribute to this Special Issue with original articles and reviews based on clinical and experimental research. Papers from all subspecialities of ophthalmology are welcome, as they could provide a more personal approach to ophthalmological conditions.

Dr. Camelia Margareta Bogdanici
Guest Editor
