BMJ Ophthalmology Online
BMJ Open Ophthalmology is a companion journal to British Journal of Ophthalmology. It adheres to the highest industry standards concerning publication ethics.
BIPOSA is working as an affiliate organisation with BMJ OO for this year’s annual meeting. We are offering delegates the
opportunity to have the accepted abstract (either poster or oral) published online in the BMJ OO. There is usually a £50 fee for this service, however on this occasion BIPOSA will cover the fee.
If your work is accepted and you wish your abstract to be included in BMJ Open Ophthalmology, you must follow the instructions and deadlines provided by email. Inclusion requires full meeting registration with payment of the registration fee by the stated deadline, and submission of the author declaration form. Indicating consent alone does not guarantee inclusion. The deadline is 10 am 01st August 2026. There is no ecxeption in any circumstances to this deadline.
If we do not hear from you, the author declaration form is not returned, and/or you have not registered and paid the meeting registration fee by the 01st August 2026, we will assume you do not wish your abstract to be published, and it will not be included. No exceptions will be made, and no deadline extensions will be granted.
