4.0 out of 5 stars
Good review book, ideal for last -minute cramming as the authors suggest,

This review is from: Ophthalmology Board Review: Pearls of Wisdom, Second Edition (Paperback)
Thousands of straightforward questions followed by a concise answer. When reading this book you very quickly highlight your weaknesses and are prompted to go back to the text and review. I think that this book is most beneficial for knowing your stuff when getting pimped by attendings and fellows who tend to ask pointed questions during surgery or in clinic. This book has every question that they have ever thought to ask and many more. I would like to see some photos in this book with the same type of pointed questions since Ophthalmolgy is so dependant on clinical appearance for diagnosis and treatment. There is no dedicated pathology section, but all other topics including optics and pharmacology are tested.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ophthalmology Board Review: Pearls of Wisdom, Second Edition (Paperback)
This review book is a great, rapid fire question book with answers, similar to the Recall series most of us remember in medical school. So high yield I'm certain I bumped up my OKAP and Board scores by at least a few points. Some of the questions are out of date but so are the boards. Best section is the rapid fire optics questions. No pictures but that makes this book easier to review quickly, use it with the basic science books or friedman's open for pictures.
