Welcome to the first edition of Clinical Ophthalmology of 2008. This is our second year of publication after an extremely busy first year. We continue to get a huge number of submissions and this has accelerated now that the journal is almost completely open access. The reasons for this acceleration may be wider access of published articles from the journal or may simply be a result of the number of excellent articles that continue to be rejected by the more established journals. The latter often cite lack of print space as a reason for this rejection – something that we at Clinical Ophthalmology will never do. If our peer reviewers feel an article is good enough, then it will be published.
