Based on Dr. Wright’s classic major reference, Handbook of Pediatric Eye and Systemic Disease outlines the latest findings in diagnosing children's eye diseases and their treatment options. Distilling the essentials of ocular manifestations of systemic disorders and diseases into a portable, complete and authoritative pocket reference, this handbook offers a complete picture of how to best treat pediatric patients. Specifically, the introductory chapters on the specifics of pediatric ophthalmology (embryology, post-natal development and the pediatric exam) will help newcomers to pediatric practice fully grasp the subtle differences in pediatric care. The chapters are written by leading experts in the field and are presented in a user-friendly format, relying on heavily illustrated color plates, clinically helpful tables, charts, and decision-making guidelines. This approach will enable the practitioner (whether specialist or generalist) to make the most accurate diagnosis and choose the most effective treatment option.

From the reviews:
"A white coat pocket book organized differently from others. ... With many color illustrations, tables and references. For students, residents and practitioners in Pediatrics and Ophthalmology." (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol. 4 (3), March, 2007)
"A very useful and high quality resource in helping to tackle the often daunting task of getting to grips with the vast number of paediatric systemic diseases with ocular manifestations. ... this book is also likely to appeal to clinical geneticists and dysmorphologists. ...The Handbook of Pediatric Eye and Systemic Disease is both well-written and accurate ... . I would recommend this handbook to anyone with an interest in general ophthalmology who also sees children, specialist paediatric ophthalmologists, paediatricians, and any physician ... ." (Michel Michaelides, Graefe’s Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, Vol. 246 (5), 2008)
Concise yet comprehensive, the chapters in this handbook are reader friendly, organized with clear sub-headings to quickly guide the reader to areas of interest. Excellent, detailed color photographs and diagrams illustrate and enhance the clinical pearls. Extensive use of tables and information boxes helps to simplify and summarize complex topics. A broad range of topics covered include:
-Chromosomal abnormalities
-Cranio-facial abnormalities
-Connective tissue disorders
-Phakomatoses
-Metabolic disorders
-Infectious diseases
Also included is a comprehensive outline of the ocular manifestation of inherited diseases. This chapter provides a clinical snapshot of dozens of congenital conditions and their ocular manifestations.
An important aspect of Handbook of Pediatric Eye and Systemic Disease is patient education. Children with systemic disease and congenital disorders often have debilitating conditions without many viable treatment options. In these cases even the seasoned physician can feel uncomfortable when speaking with the family. An insightful and extremely sensitive chapter called "Breaking the News" provides practical assistance for the physician in communicating with the family.
