After 70 years of development, China has become a global leader in the academic research and clinical practice of fundus diseases.

We are moving forward to incorporate new technologies such as AI and big data into the treatment of fundus diseases. The summary is intended to commemorate the past masters and to inspire the young ophthalmologists. We would like to send congratulations on the 70th anniversary of Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology with this article. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2020, 56:241-245).
