Welcome to the second edition of Clinical Ophthalmology of 2008. Whether you are reading the journal online or in print, I hope you enjoy this edition. If you are looking for the latest articles ‘hot off the press’ then go to our ‘Online Early’ section (http://dovepress.com/articles.php?issue_id=134) where you will find articles published in the last few weeks. One of the many benefits of electronic publishing is its immediacy of available material and without doubt this is the reason electronic publication will increasingly dominate traditional publishing.
