Editorial Reviews

Review

"...it is the single best practical guide to the subject of anterior segment trauma management currently available. The authors are to be congratulated for producing a superb book for us all"Cornea, The Journal of Cornea and External Disease, April 2003
reference guide. As a trainee opthamologist, I found this book extremely useful. It covers most of the conditions seen routinely in eye casualty and provides sound advice on their management."" Nick Maywer, British and Irish Orthoptic Society, January 2004

From the Author

We wrote this book to be easy to use for the primary eye care practitioner. As a unique collaboration between an optometrist and ophthalmologist, we aimed for a primary eyecare emphasis but with depth and breadth as well. It aims to be comprehensive and have sufficient depth of content to be useful. There are 158 conditions covered, each with a double page including full color photographs and with an emphasis on management. Areas covered include cornea, conjunctiva, sclera, eyelids, skin, lens and surgical signs. There is also a full appendix listing all topical therapeutic drugs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, August 25, 2004
By 
M. Stevens (Bloomington, IN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Anterior Eye Disease and Therapeutics A-Z (Paperback)
As an OD student, I have been using this book quite a bit. I love the easy to read format and all of the color photos. It is a small reference book that I can keep in the clinic instead of hauling the large & heavy Kanski around. My only fault is that it is only of the anterior segment. I was wondering if there is a posterior a-z book of the same format? I have searched but haven't been able to find one. Anyone know?

5.0 out of 5 stars Really good in office reference!, May 30, 2008
By 
A Wright (Australia and Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anterior Eye Disease and Therapeutics A-Z (Paperback)
I found this book to be a really good source of info - both as student and now as a working optometrist. It has good, concise descriptions and the 2-page layout per condition is excellent. The photos are really good for explaining diseases to patients in-office. Easy to look up what you need due to the A-Z scale on the side. This is a book you will actually use in your career. Highly recommended!!
