Product Description: Clinical Anatomy of the Eye has proved to be a very popular textbook for ophthalmologists and optometrists in training all over the world. The objective of the book is to provide the reader with the basic knowledge of anatomy necessary to practice ophthalmology. It is recognised that this medical speciality requires a detailed knowledge of the eyeball and the surrounding structures. The specialist's knowledge should include not only gross anatomic features and their development, but also the microscopic anatomy of the eyeball and the ocular appendages. The nerve and blood supply to the orbit, the autonomic innervation of the orbital structures, the visual pathway, and associated visual reflexes should receive great emphasis. The practical application of anatomic facts to ophthalmology has been emphasised throughout this book in the form of Clinical Notes in each chapter. Clinical problems requiring anatomic knowledge for their solution are presented at the end of each chapter. Illustrations are kept simple and overview drawings of the distribution of the cranial and autonomic nerves have been included.

Product Description: This comprehensive reference covers the essential diagnostic and treatment information an otolaryngologist needs. Organized by organ and anatomic region, the book features extensive informative illustrations and incorporates key teaching points from self-instructional packages published by the American Academy of Otolaryngology.
Product Description: This new edition of Neurology of Eye Movements is a major revision providing clinicians with a synthesis of current and new scientific information that can be applied to the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of ocular motility. Basic scientists will also benefit from descriptions of how data from anatomic, electrophysiologic, pharmacologic, and imaging studies can be directly applied to the study of disease. By critically reviewing such basic studies, Drs. Leigh and Zee build a conceptual framework that can be applied to the interpretation of abnormal ocular motor behavior at the bedside. These syntheses are summarized in boxes, figures, schematics, and tables. Insights and techniques from current research, case examples, bedside and laboratory studies, and thousands of references are all available here from two leading clinician-scientists who have been studying eye movements for over a quarter century. The previous edition of Neurology of Eye Movements, Third Volume, established as acknowledged as a classic in the field, is now enhanced in this new edition by an accompanying DVD featuring the full text with links to 20 Video Displays that provide teaching slides ready for classroom presentation. Also on the DVD are 200 video clips, images, and the lectures notes Control Systems Applied to the Oculomotor System by David A. Robinson.

Ophthalmic Drug Facts is the definitive single source of objective, up-to-date drug information for eye care professionals. Both Rx and OTC products are grouped by therapeutic category for quick, easy reference and comparison. Detailed monographs include all of the drug information that practitioners need to make therapeutic decisions: actions, interactions, adverse reactions, contraindications, dosages, off-label uses, and patient information. The book also includes dozens of charts, tables, and administration illustrations, contact lens products, a manufacturers index, and selected AOA practice guidelines. A comprehensive index helps the reader locate drugs by generic or brand name, synonym, common abbreviation, or therapeutic group.
The updated Third Edition of this manual is a comprehensive self-assessment review of ophthalmology and a valuable study aid for any ophthalmologist or ophthalmologist-in-training. It contains over 3,000 true/false, matching, and multiple-choice questions covering the entire field of ophthalmology, including the subspecialties. Answers are provided along with brief explanations and extensive references. Several hundred new questions have been added to this new edition, with significantly updated content and revised, expanded explanations. Two new chapters cover General Medicine and International Ophthalmology. This edition also includes more than 100 full-color photographs depicting ocular pathology and ophthalmic conditions.
Product Description: This volume brings together work from leading researchers in the fields of developmental disorders of binocular vision, strabismus, and both infantile and acquired forms of nystagmus. It contains four sections. The first section, Basic Concepts of Stable Vision and Gaze, deals with psychophysical aspects of infantile forms of nystagmus and the relative contributions of extraocular proprioception and efference (corollary discharge). It also contains an accessible review of current notions of spatial and temporal visual functions and spatial constancy in infantile nystagmus syndrome and latent nystagmus. The second section, New Models and Techniques for Studying Gaze Stability, reviews animal and development models for strabismus, amblyopia, and nystagmus. It also contains novel optical methods for managing the visual consequences of nystagmus and a study of the potential ill effects of video displays on children's response to near viewing. The third section, New Therapies for Congenital Nystagmus, presents basic genetic studies and clinical trials of drug and surgical treatment of those patients with infantile forms of nystagmus. The final section,General Aspects of Normal and Abnormal Gaze Control, pulls together a range of contributions dealing with normal gaze control, infantile nystagmus, and acquired disorders of eye movements, including new treatment measures. This book will be a valuable resource for all scientists and practitioners interested in developmental disorders of vision.
Product Description: Thoroughly updated and revised, with a new set of questions, this challenging and informative self-assessment book continues to thoroughly test the candidate's knowledge.
The availability of new presbyopia-correcting and toric IOLs along with the CMS ruling allowing Medicare patients to pay a premium to upgrade to them, has dramatically and permanently altered clinical practice for every cataract and refractive surgeon.
Facing the challenge of educating patients about these options, as well as managing and meeting their expectations, today’s clinicians more than ever need to share knowledge, experience, and advice with their ophthalmic colleagues.
Dr. David F. Chang and his associate editors, Drs. Steven J. Dell, Warren E. Hill, Richard L. Lindstrom, and Kevin L. Waltz, have assembled a “Who’s Who” team of more than 200 refractive IOL experts to create Mastering Refractive IOLs: The Art and Science, a must-have book and reference for all cataract and refractive surgeons—whether you are already implanting a high volume of refractive IOLs or just starting to offer them.
The IOL technical specifications, the clinical data, and the necessary clinical and surgical skills comprise the scientific foundation for achieving a “premium” refractive outcome. To consistently achieve patient satisfaction, however, requires mastering the art of patient and IOL selection, communicating and counseling effectively, and providing a “premium” patient experience.
This is a nontraditional book in which multiple experts are separately asked to discuss controversial subjects in a reader-friendly format. There is balanced coverage of all of the available refractive IOLs, as well as those that may become available in the near future. A major emphasis is placed on avoiding and managing complications or potentially dissatisfied patients.
Mastering Refractive IOLs: The Art and Science has more than 200 chapters that are organized into 14 major sections, over 750 images, over100 tables, and 11 sidebars that cover every aspect of refractive IOL clinical practice.
Major sections include: • Why Offer Premium IOLs • Transitioning to Presbyopia-Correcting IOLs • Transitioning to Presbyopia-Correcting IOLs: Quick Start Guides • Presbyopia-Correcting IOLs Today • Presbyopia-Correcting IOLs in the fFture • Refractive IOLs—Quality of Vision • Patient Selection & Education • Presbyopia-Correcting IOL Selection • Preoperative Ocular Assessment • Managing Astigmatism • Premium Cataract Surgery • Refractive Lens Exchange • Enhancements • Complications—Avoidance and Management
Mastering Refractive IOLs: The Art and Science is the most comprehensive educational resource addressing the most demanding and rapidly evolving area in cataract and refractive surgery today and the first book to cover both the clinical and nonclinical aspects of offering refractive IOL services.
