Submitting Scientific Papers to Ophthalmology
It is no longer mandatory that all manuscripts based on Annual Meeting presentations be submitted to the Academy's journal, Ophthalmology. However, the journal does retain the right of first refusal for all manuscripts based on Annual Meeting presentations, both podium and poster. Anyone who wishes to publish such a paper must first submit the manuscript to Ophthalmology. The editor-in-chief is the only person who can grant exceptions to this rule.

Submit manuscripts electronically to Elsevier or OphSource.
