Main description:

There are many great neuro-ophthalmology texts available ranging from huge encyclopedic tomes to small, detailed resources. Combining the best features of these books, Atlas of Neuro-ophthalmology offers a glimpse into a wide variety of rare and unusual neuro-ophthalmic disorders. Long recognized as a leading authority on the optic nerve, Tom Spoor distills his years of experience into this superbly illustrated atlas.

The book is a completely revised and updated version of Dr. Spoor's original Atlas of Optic Nerve Disorders (1992). He addresses all aspects of the optic nerve and its disorders-such as optic atrophy, neuropathy, and nerve tumors-making this an essential book for practitioners and students. The inclusion of basic and advanced topics makes it an ideal study guide and the superb illustrations make it a practical diagnostic tool.
