“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

Frequently asked
Is Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

What is the impact factor of Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina?
Papers in Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina are cited about 0.9 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 88. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

By category: Ophthalmology: Q2, #75 of 151; Surgery: Q2, #275 of 603; Medicine (miscellaneous): Q3, #1,401 of 2,517. Its best category quartile is Q2. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina is cited about 0.9 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 88.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q2 in Ophthalmology and 1 other category, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Ophthalmic surgery, lasers & imaging retina open access?
Our index records its access status as "hybrid". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
