The fourth edition of the Oxford Handbook of Ophthalmology has been fully revised and updated, now including free access to the ophthalmic online media bank with a selection of images and videos of clinical cases for a wide range of important ophthalmic conditions. This handbook provides immediate access to the detailed clinical information required in emergency situations, clinical visits, surgeries, and hospital units.
The core of the book includes a systematic summary of eye diseases, focusing on diagnosis, intermediate assessment, and ongoing management. The book includes evaluation boxes for common clinical conditions and algorithms for significant clinical presentations, illustrating this practical approach. The information is presented clearly, with important areas highlighted. Key sections for trainees include: Clinical Skills, Aids to Diagnosis, Tests and Their Interpretation, Perioperative Care, Surgical Notes, and Therapeutics.
The broader practice of eye care is supported by enhanced chapters on Reconstructive Ophthalmology, Vision in Context, Evidence-Based Ophthalmology, and Resources for Ophthalmologists. New treatments across a range of specialties, such as SMILE, gene therapy, and ocular prosthetic devices, are included, along with a greater emphasis on the evidence supporting current clinical practice and guidelines.
Regardless of your role in the care of patients with eye disease - ophthalmologist, optician, orthoptist, ophthalmic nurse, or other health professional - discover why this handbook has become the "go-to" resource for thousands of eye care professionals worldwide.
