Research Promotion

Exciting Updates Coming Soon

The IOA is pleased to announce the development of a Research Promotion Hub as part of our commitment to advancing orthoptic research and supporting professionals at all stages of their careers.

This page will serve as a repository of practical resources designed to help orthoptists engage in research, present their findings, and contribute to the growing body of orthoptic knowledge.


What to Expect

We are currently preparing how-to guides and resources covering key research and presentation skills, including:

  • How to structure a research paper: Step-by-step guidance for writing and organizing research for publication.
  • How to create an effective conference presentation or poster: Tips and techniques for showcasing your work at professional events.
  • How to critique scientific literature: Tools to evaluate research critically, including understanding study design and statistical analysis.

These resources will also complement materials available in the Professional Development section, ensuring a cohesive approach to education and research.


Stay Tuned

The IOA is dedicated to supporting orthoptists in producing high-quality research and sharing knowledge across the global community. Updates on the Research Promotion Hub will be shared soon—watch this space!
