Exchange articles

The Community Eye Health Journal invites readers to exchange views and experiences in the Exchange section of the journal. In this section, we include letters to the editor and short reports about research, prevention of blindness activities, achievements and lessons from different countries. Examples of reports considered for publication include outstanding achievements of eye care programmes, interesting insights from eye care work, and summaries of research projects. Reports will normally be between 200-300 words, but submissions of up to 500 words will be considered.

These articles are sent for review before being submitted for publication. Criteria for acceptance include the following:

• Articles must be relevant to the work of most of our readers (which include mid-level eye care personnel, ophthalmologists, eye care managers and optometrists)

• Articles based on case studies or the authors’ experiences in the field should be written in a way that allows readers to draw lessons from the article that they can apply in their own context, and to their own work

• Articles based on research should provide conclusions that will inform and/or improve the day-to-day practice or work of our readers

• The writing style must be practical, straightforward and easy to understand.
