Overview

Editorial clarifies administrative duties of corresponding authors, highlighting the necessity of long-term contact availability.

Key Points

  • Clarify the specific administrative roles, ethical duties, and communication responsibilities associated with the corresponding author designation in academic publishing.
  • Editorial commentary outlining journal policy and operational workflows at Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics (OPO).
  • The corresponding author functions strictly as the administrative liaison responsible for manuscript submission, peer-review correspondence, ethical approvals, trial registrations, conflict disclosures, and post-publication inquiries without conveying distinct academic prestige.
  • Journal policy permits only one corresponding author per submission to avoid operational delays and recommends listing senior researchers with stable contact information rather than transient trainees.
