Language Editing Service
Strong glaucoma research deserves clear communication. The International Journal of Glaucoma offers optional language editing support to help authors present their findings with precision and confidence.
Editing focuses on grammar, clarity, and structure while preserving scientific meaning and data integrity.
Clarity that respects scientific precision
Clear language improves peer review and helps readers apply clinical findings with confidence. The language editing service supports authors who want additional help refining grammar, flow, and terminology before submission.
Editing focuses on clarity and readability while preserving scientific meaning. The service does not guarantee acceptance and does not influence editorial decisions.
What the service includes
- Grammar, spelling, and punctuation correction
- Clarity and flow improvements for complex clinical descriptions
- Consistency of terminology, abbreviations, and units
- Formatting guidance for references and figure captions
What editing does not include
Language editing does not replace scientific review, statistical validation, or peer review. Authors remain responsible for the accuracy of methods, results, and conclusions.
When to request editing
Consider language editing if English is not your primary writing language, if multiple authors have contributed to the manuscript, or if the content includes highly technical or statistical descriptions that require extra clarity.
How to request
- Prepare your manuscript file and any supporting figures.
- Email the editorial office with a short summary of your request.
- We will confirm scope, timelines, and any applicable fees.
Confidential handling
All files shared for language editing are treated as confidential and are used only for the requested service.
Request editing before submission when possible so that language improvements are completed prior to peer review.
Important note
Language editing is optional and independent from peer review. All submissions are evaluated solely on scientific merit, ethics, and relevance to glaucoma research.
