Riassunto

Ophthalmic Diagnosis and Treatment provides expert recommendations for management and treatment of the conditions most often encountered by eye care providers. Dual tables of contents, one listed alphabetically, the other by specialty area, permit easy, rapid access of information for both the ophthalmic practitioner and the student. The design of the book -- a two-page layout per entity -- allows for quick confirmation of the diagnosis and management. For further ease of use in busy clinical settings, the appropriate ICD-9 diagnostic codes, used for insurance/coding purposes, will be included for each entity covered.

Recensione:

Students are commenting that they like the fact that it has color photos and ICD-9 codes. it's easy to use and organized intuitively. It's main competitors would be Wills Eye Manual and Mass. Eye and Ear. I think it is superior to Mass. Eye and Ear bevause that book goes over things that are rarely seen in clinic in too much detail and seems to skip over common entitities too much. Students still seem to prefer Wills, but that could be simply beause they are used to using it. One comment a student gave me was that is is helpful to students to have things organized by category rather than alphabetically. for example, if they have a patient who they think has a c ertain corneal condition, it would be helpful it all corneal conditions were grouped together so they could quickly skim and see what they might be missing.
