Colour Atlas of Ophthalmology aims to be a useful guide not only to general practitioners, but to other non-ophthalmologists as well - the physicians, surgeons, nurses, students, and all those paramedical personnel who have to deal with common eye diseases. Some practical geographical and racial differences have been included to emphasize the growing importance of the different disease patterns in different countries.
This book comprises 11 chapters, with the first focusing on eye examination - the ocular symptoms and the methods of treatment such as ophthalmoscopy and other special techniques. Succeeding chapters discuss lid, lacrimal apparatus and orbit; conjunctiva, sclera and cornea; lens and glaucoma; uveal tract, retina and vitreous; ocular manifestations of systemic diseases; neuro-ophthalmology; eye diseases in children; ocular injuries; refractive errors; and ophthalmic drugs.
This book will be of interest to practitioners in the fields of ophthalmology and the medical sciences.
