Abstract

A comprehensive textbook of ophthalmology, which presents all the relevant information needed for examinations. The authors have produced a coherent summary of this often demanding speciality, the text is well-expressed, logically organized and uses clear diagrams, photographs and lists of key points to make complex issues easier to understand and revise. The authors explain, step-by-step, the practical ophthalmological procedures that all GPs and Casualty Officers need which, with the practical checklist, makes this a useful everyday reference. Following a concise description of anatomy and physiology assessment and refraction, the book takes a problem-solving approach to the major ophthalmological signs and symptoms: squint or strabismus, glaucoma, red eye, sudden painless loss of vision, gradual painless loss of vision, neuro-ophthalmological problems, diabetes, trauma. Supplementing these core clinical problems are comprehensive chapters on tropical ophthalmology, genetics and the epidemiology of visual loss.
