College research journal turns 90

The 90 year anniversary of College of Optometrists’ bimonthly research journal Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics (OPO) was marked during the ARVO 2015 conference earlier this month.

Speaking at the event in Denver, professor Ed Mallen (pictured), said: ‘OPO has played a key role in my career and my development as a researcher – from PhD student to professor of physiological optics at Bradford University.

'As chair of the College of Optometrists’ research committee and a member of the OPO Steering Group, it was wonderful to have the chance to thank all of those who have contributed to the success of OPO over the years, and to welcome future contributors to the journal.’
