9780323002363: The Requisites in Ophthalmology: Basic Science, Refraction, and Pathology

Sinossi

This volume in the popular Requisites in Ophthalmology series concisely presents all of today's need-to-know information on ophthalmic anatomy and physiology, refraction, and pathology. It also explains the clinical applications of this foundational knowledge. No other reference encompasses all three of these important basic sciences in such a compact, clinically oriented, easy-to-read format.

  • Covers the pathology of each eye segment (including intraocular neoplasms) as well as developmental defects, ocular manifestations of systemic diseases, and their respective clinico-pathologic correlations
  • Explores the general anatomy of each eye segment and examines its corresponding physiology.
  • Describes the essentials of optics and refraction, and discusses the optics involved in popular eye procedures such as intraocular lens implants and corneal refractive surgery.
  • Uses abundant diagrams, black-and-white illustrations, color photos, and drawings to make every concept clear.
  • Features all the elements that have made previous Requisites in Ophthalmology volumes so popular-including summaries of major points, boxed information highlights, plentiful artwork, and a focus on the most necessary material.
