Samenvatting:

AN ENGAGING, CLINICALLY ORIENTED TEXT THAT SPANS THE FULL SPECTRUM OF NEUROOPHTHALMOLOGY

Practical Neuroophthalmology covers the basic principles and major conditions of neuroophthalmology in a concise, user-friendly manner. Rather than merely presenting a catalog of facts, the authors enrich the text by describing how complex neuroophthalmic signs and symptoms are often a logical consequence of anatomy and pathophysiology. With its comprehensive coverage and neuroanatomic approach, Practical Neuroophthalmology is both an outstanding clinical resource and a valuable board review tool.
