"It provides a sound knowledge base for ophthalmic nurses. The
layout is clear and easy to follow. . . I have recommended it to my
work colleagues. It is a valuable resource, easy to understand and
covers the day to day aspects of ophthalmic nursing - and is a must
have for every accident and emergency department." (The
