Proofing procedure
Corresponding authors will receive two sets of proofs, one in pdf format and one in hardcopy. They are requested to check the proofs carefully for printing mistakes only, and to return a corrected version within 3 days. Extensive corrections (other than printers' errors) may be charged to the author. Authors of accepted papers are responsible for proofreading and must return the proofs without delay by Air Mail or Fax.
Copyright and permissions
It is a condition of publication in the Journal that authors assign copyright to Swets & Zeitlinger Publishers. This ensures that requests from third parties to reproduce articles are handled efficiently and consistently and will also allow the article to be as widely disseminated as possible. In assigning copyright, authors may use their own material in other publications provided that the Journal is acknowledged as the original place of publication. Therefore, the Manuscript should be accompanied by a signed Consent to Publish form . Please note that your manuscript can only be taken into production once the signed form has been received. It is the responsibility of the author to obtain written permission for a quotation from unpublished material, or for all quotations in excess of 250 words in one extract or 500 words in total from any work still in copyright, and for the reprinting of illustrations or tables from unpublished or copyright material. Submission of a paper to this Journal implies that it has not been published before and that it is not being considered for publication elsewhere.
The Editors and the Publisher of Ophthalmic Epidemiology are not responsible for the scientific content and statements of the authors of accepted papers.
