Opthalmology 2e
Gerhard Lang

Like its predecessor, the 2nd edition provides a concise, thorough and up-to-date introduction to the field of ophthalmology. Medical students on ophthalmology rotations, as well as beginning residents, will find it an invaluable companion on the ward and a useful aid for test preparation. Fully trained physicians and other health professionals, too, will be able to use it for a self-taught refresher course in ophthalmology. The special features of this book include: more than 500 clear, well-drawn illustrations and color photographs illustrating clinical findings, disease pathophysiology, and more; many new illustrations since the previous edition reflecting the latest developments in the field, particularly in the chapters on the retina and the cornea; a new appendix containing correlations between clinical findings and the latest examining techniques, as well as a guide to visual field defects; comprehensive presentation of examining techniques; an expanded glossary and a copiously illustrated table of important anatomical structures; a convenient and comprehensive table of cardinal manifestations of disease with associated findings, probable diagnoses, and suggestions for diagnostic work-up; and clearly and consistently organized chapters on all major diseases. Just as in the 1st edition, the individual chapters are organized to maximize their usefulness as a teaching tool: each chapter begins with the relevant basic concepts in anatomy and physiology; all diseases are consistently presented in accordance with clinical logic: first the symptoms, then the examination findings, then the diagnosis; and the diseases are both described in words and shown in didactically useful illustrations. Understand the entire field of ophthalmology with this compact, beautifully illustrated text!
