Abstract
The German Ophthalmological Society (DOG) regularly records the scientific activities of ophthalmological research institutions in Germany. With this publication the DOG wants to make the performance of scientific ophthalmology in Germany transparent and increase the options for future research cooperation with facilities of research institutions. Systematic survey of German research centers in ophthalmology. The current research map records the data from 41German research centers for the reporting period 2018-2020. Compared to previous editions of the research map, there has been asignificant increase in scientific activity. The number of studies reported rose to 496. The number of government funded research projects (n = 121) and projects funded by foundations (n = 108) also increased. Furthermore, the number of scientific publications has almost doubled: while 1919 were published in the period from 2012 to 2014 and 2305 in the period from 2015 to 2017, there were 4215 in the current reporting period. The map also reports on acontinuous increase in the number of young scientists in ophthalmology. The research map demonstrates the performance of German scientific ophthalmology. At the same time, the need for research in ophthalmology remains high because many diseases that affect the eyes are not yet or not yet completely curable.
