OPHTHALMIC AND PHYSIOLOGICAL OPTICS

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics considers papers which deal either with basic aspects of visual science or with clinical and applied matters relevant to the practice and application of optometry. The material may be experimental, observational, theoretical or historical in nature. While emphasis is given to matters of importance to optometrists, many of the topics discussed are of interest to visual psychologists, physiologists, and others concerned with the development, use and restoration of vision. Basic studies might concern the development and use of vision. Articles dealing with the practice of optometry and its related instrumentation are major components of the Journal, topics ranging from the design of spectacle and contact lenses to ocular disease and the use of drugs. Emphasis is also given to problems in applied vision in such situations as driving, optical instrumentation and visual displays. Readership: optometrists, vision scientists, ophthalmologists, visual psychologists, physicists, neuroscientists and medical libraries.
