Medical students on ophthalmology rotations, as well as beginning residents, will find it an invaluable companion on the ward and a useful aid for test preparation. Fully trained physicians and other health professionals, too, will be able to use it for a self-taught refresher course in ophthalmology.

The special features of this book include:

- More than 500 clear, well-drawn illustrations and color photographs illustrating clinical findings, disease pathophysiology, and more

- Many new illustrations since the previous edition reflecting the latest developments in the field, particularly in the chapters on the retina and the cornea

- A new appendix containing correlations between clinical findings and the latest examining techniques, as well as a guide to visual field defects

- Comprehensive presentation of examining techniques

- An expanded glossary and a copiously illustrated table of important anatomical structures

- A convenient and comprehensive table of cardinal manifestations of disease with associated findings, probable diagnoses, and suggestions for diagnostic work-up

- Clearly and consistently organized chapters on all major diseases

Just as in the 1st edition, the individual chapters are organized to maximize their usefulness as a teaching tool:

- Each chapter begins with the relevant basic concepts in anatomy and physiology

- All diseases are consistently presented in accordance with clinical logic: first the symptoms, then the examination findings, then the diagnosis

- The diseases are both described in words and shown in didactically useful illustrations
