Main description:

Comprehensive Ophthalmology is the latest edition of this extensive guide to ophthalmology, which includes a free supplementary copy of Review of Ophthalmology.

The main text has been thoroughly revised and updated, reorganised into six sections for ease of reference. These sections cover anatomy and physiology of the eye, optics and refraction, diseases of the eye, ocular therapeutics, systemic and community ophthalmology, and practical ophthalmology. The book is divided into 26 chapters, each beginning with a brief overview of the topic followed by relevant anatomy and physiology.



The supplementary book Review of Ophthalmology is also thoroughly revised and updated with recent advances, new concepts and principles of investigation, treatment, and surgical procedures developed since the previous edition. The second half of the book provides multiple choice questions corresponding to each of the twenty review chapters.



With over 600 full colour images and illustrations and the opportunity for self-assessment in the additional review book, Comprehensive Ophthalmology is an ideal resource for undergraduates, residents and practising ophthalmologists.
