Manual of Strabismus Surgery
C. J. MacEwen , Richard M. C. Gregson
editore: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd
pagine: 210
The first section covers the general assessment and investigation of the squinting patient, before considering whether surgery is the best form of treatment. The second section addresses common squint disorders, describing the conditions and highlighting the surgical options to be considered. The final section provides a step-by-step account of the surgical procedures, indicating when they should be used, and illustrating specific techniques. This is an essential manual for trainees in clinical practice and those preparing for examinations who need to know how to competently manage this commonly encountered disorder. Optometrists will also find it of great value when managing these patients both pre- and post-operatively.
Oculomotor Systems and Perception
Sheldon M. Ebenholz
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 236
This 2001 text was the first to emphasize the role of oculomotor systems in perception. Oculomotor systems that regulate eye movements play an important role in accounting for certain qualities of visual experience. They are implicated in a wide array of perceptual topics, from apparent size, depth, and distance, to apparent slant and vertical orientation. The text begins with a brief introduction to the basic characteristics of such oculomotor systems as those controlling vergence, pursuit, the vestibulo-ocular response, and saccadic eye movements. Also introduced are fundamental concepts in physiological optics. Next explored are mechanisms of perception, with a particular focus on eye movements, and the remarkably diverse implications of oculomotor research, which extend to motion sickness and life in space orbit. Insights into dysfunctional vision are also offered. This book complements standard texts on visual perception, yet may be read independently by those with a modest background in vision science.
Ophthalmic Lasers
Charles M. Wormington
editore: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd
pagine: 544
With a general working knowledge of ophthalmic lasers, optometrists can better evaluate patients to determine when laser surgery may be most beneficial. The optometrist is involved in the post-operative care of the patient, with the ophthalmologist performing the actual surgery. Looking to the future when optometrists will be permitted to perform laser surgery themselves, this is an excellent guide for optometrists and optometry students on when and how to use the various ophthalmic lasers.

Biochemistry of the Eye
David R. Whikehart
editore: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd
pagine: 512
A readable introduction to this difficult topic, this textbook provides information on the molecular structures and biochemical events that occur in the eye. With specific clinical examples, basic science is linked to clinical practice and helps students understand this challenging topic. General biochemistry is discussed in each chapter. Many examples of biochemical pathology and disease processes, such as age-related cataract formation and ocular diabetes, are described.
Retina, Choroid and Vitreous
The Requisites
Jose S. Pulido
editore: Mosby
pagine: 240
Finally, there appears a book dedicated solely to the posterior segment of the eye. "Retina, Choroid, and Vitreous" is the fifth volume and a perfect complement of the "Requisites in Ophthalmology" series; it extracts the most essential information of what is important to learn for both ophthalmologists in practice and in training. Dr. Pulido covers the most frequently found diseases, such as: age-related macular degeneration (the leading cause of blindness in the U.S.) and its recent breakthroughs, repair of retinal trauma and detachment, treatment of infections, and the evaluation of all imaging technologies and diagnostic modalities. Unique to the requisite series, it adopts a well-illustrated format comprised of boxes, highlighted sections, and points to remember. In addition, colour photographs depict the latest imaging techniques in order to aid the physician in accurately diagnosing ailments.
Basic Science, Refraction, and Pathology
The Requisites
Constance E. West
,
M. E. Smith
e altri
editore: Mosby
pagine: 192
"The Requisites in Ophthalmology" series serves as a vital resource for the learning and training needs of ophthalmology trainees and practitioners. This volume covers the three major basic sciences of ophthalmology: pathology, physiology, and refraction, and how they relate to all the clinical subspecialties. It links pathology to each segment of the eye and describes developmental defects and ocular manifestations of systemic diseases. Through detailed color and black-and-white illustrations, it centers on the general anatomy of each eye segment and its corresponding physiology. A comprehensive section on refraction uses diagrams and illustrations to show how the different components of the retinal image are produced by the eye. This book is excellent for the learning needs of all ophthalmologists, and it helps residents in training from being dependent on weekend cram courses as a way to ingest this extremely important, but dense science background.
