DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
This title presents promising new developments in age-related macular
degeneration, with emphasis on the most significant advances in the
recent years. Content addresses aspects of management, including
anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology; imaging of the macula in
age-related macular degeneration; prevention measures and treatment;
treatment; and future directions.
Diagnostic Ophthalmology is a reference textbook that provides vital
information about the 280+ most common diagnoses encountered in an
ophthalmologic practice. Using the pioneered Amirsys bulleted format,
the textbook presents the information you need to know in a clear,
concise manner that maximizes efficiency. Each chapter distills trenchant
information to the essentials, containing a highlighted key facts box that
summarizes the major points of the chapter, plus detailed sections on
terminology, etiology/pathogenesis, clinical issues, and management.
All of the important differential diagnoses and treatment options follow
so the practicing clinical ophthalmologist can find the information in the
same place every time. Perhaps the most important aspect of this book
is that it contains high-quality color images for every diagnosis, such
as slit-lamp exam, fundus photography, ophthalmic diagnostic pictures,
pathologic findings, correlative radiographic images, and richly colored
graphics, all of which are fully annotated to reinforce the most important
diagnostic findings. Ophthalmology is a visual specialty and images are
vital. Whether you are learning for the first time or using the book as a
rapid reference, this book is a valuable resource.
