The journal Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia (ABO) started its activities in 1938. The founder and first editor was Dr. Waldemar Rangel Belfort Mattos. ABO has been published continuously since then. On September 29, 2000, ABO was transferred to the Brazilian Council of Ophthalmology (Conselho Brasileiro de Oftalmologia - CBO). The purpose of the journal is to disseminate original research, clinical cases of scientific interest, and continuous medical updates in ophthalmology, ocular health, prevention of blindness, and visual sciences.
