The Society for Clinical Ophthalmology File:SCO_logo_wiki.jpg Aim The Society for Clinical Ophthalmology (the SCO) is a not-for-profit UK-based, international organisation established in 2008 with the goal of improving information dissemination and exchange in the world of Eye Care (where Eye Care is used as an umbrella term to include the ophthalmology, optometry and orthoptics and vision science). The peer-reviewed, academic journal Clinical Ophthalmology (published by Dove Medical Press) is the official journal of the SCO . The President of the SCO is [http://knol.google.com/k/scott-fraser/-/14hlkw3y2lklf/0# Prof. Scott Fraser]. Background At the core of the SCO is the goal of improving communications in Eye Care. The SCO aims to provide a coherent vehicle for the dissemination of developments and advances within these fields, and to offer a forum for debate and discussion. Eye Care is a dynamic area of modern medicine and there is a need to ensure that the progress and developments that shape the field on a daily basis are communicated in a timely, accurate and relevant manner. Ophthalmology is a well-established specialty and has traditionally been supported by a number of societies, but many of these concentrate on education / training of practitioners. The SCO's communications-centred approach sets it apart from the existing societies. See Also
