REVIEW OF CURRENT EDITION:

"This text is a one-of-a-kind resource that not only educates the ophthalmic practitioner, but also keeps the reader organized every step of the way. Overall, this text is quite valuable to optometrists and ophthalmologists who wish to enhance the perception of their practices. Each chapter is well constructed, easy-to-read, and many offer "before and after" photographs."

As a recent grad, this book helped me get an idea of what's involved in opening a practice. There are many steps involved from getting a reasonable lease to getting fixtures and furniture. This book sheds some important light on these topics. I highly recommend it.
