EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF OPHTHALMOLOGY

The European Journal of Ophthalmology (ISSN 1120-6721) is a peer-reviewed, bimonthly academic journal published by Wichtig Publishing in Milan, Italy, dedicated to advancing knowledge in the field of ophthalmology. Indexed in the Science Citation Index (SCI) and generally classified within the third or fourth quartile of the Chinese Academy of Sciences journal ranking system, the journal maintains a moderate impact factor, typically ranging between 1.5 and 2.0, reflecting its established reputation in the medical sciences. As a non-open access publication, it serves a global audience of clinicians and researchers by disseminating high-quality studies that bridge clinical practice and basic science. The journal’s scope encompasses a wide array of ophthalmic disciplines, with particular emphasis on glaucoma, cataracts, retinal diseases, corneal disorders, and surgical innovations, while actively soliciting contributions from multicenter clinical trials and novel therapeutic approaches. Although it offers a credible platform for SCI-indexed publication, authors should be aware of the journal’s competitive acceptance rate and potentially extended review timelines, making it a suitable venue for researchers seeking reputable international recognition without the pressure of top-tier impact factor requirements.
