The second issue of the journal “Ophthalmology” welcomes you not with green summer colors, but with bright flashes of golden autumn. I consider it is important that his preparing took place during a significant event – the World Sight Day.

During past time the Editorial Board have been some changes: President of the All India Ophthalmological Society, Chairman of the Foundation of India Ophthalmologists – Prof. D. Ramamurthy became its member.

We pleased to inform that in the near future the web-site of “Ophthalmology” will start to work, where everyone will be able to find answers to questions and get advices from experienced ophthalmologists on the most complicated clinical cases. In addition, we are starting to publish the materials of distance training, which, on our opinion, can be useful for young ophthalmologists and for physicians of family medicine.

We thank all those who welcomed the start of new journal and hope that “Ophthal mology” will eventually win your sympathy and become a reliable helper in your practice.

Best regards and good wishes,
