Comprehensive yet concise reference and revision guide for ophthalmology, covering all key areas with a systematic and clinical approach

Highly illustrated, comprehensive, and accessible, »Ophthalmology Lecture Notes« is the ideal reference and revision guide to common eye problems and their diagnosis and management. The textbook offers an overview of anatomy, history taking, and examination, but also covers a wide range of core ophthalmic conditions.

This Thirteenth Edition has been thoroughly updated and includes over 200 diagrams and photographs, a range of core clinical cases in chapter 20 demonstrating the clinical context of key conditions and learning objectives and summary of key points in each chapter. To aid in reader comprehension, the text also emphasizes vital “must know” knowledge and includes an online self-assessment where all the images from the book are available to download on a companion website.

Sample topics covered in »Ophthalmology Lecture Notes« include:
  • Anatomy, history, symptoms, and examination, clinical optics, and the orbit, eyelids, and lacrimal system
  • Conjunctiva, cornea, and sclera, the lens and cataract, uveitis, glaucoma, and retina and choroid
  • Retinal vascular disease, the pupil and its responses, disorders of the visual pathway, eye movements and their disorders, and trauma
  • Tropical ophthalmology (eye diseases in the developing world), eye diseases in children and services for the visually handicapped

»Ophthalmology Lecture Notes« is perfect for developing knowledge for clinical practice or revision in the run-up to examinations and uses a systematic approach to provide medical students and junior doctors with all the tools they need to manage clinical situations. It is also ideal for optometrists in training.
