Main description:

The second edition of this comprehensive guide presents ophthalmologists with the very latest techniques in ophthalmic investigations and diagnosis.

Divided into seventeen sections, the book covers investigation methods for both structural and functional abnormalities in each part of the eye.

The book has been fully revised and includes all the latest technologies, from dry eye evaluation, specular and confocal microscopy, and biometry, to frequency doubling perimetry (FDP), ultrasound biomicroscopy, and OCT angiography.

The new edition includes detail on interpretation of printouts, advantages and disadvantages of each test, clinical studies and patient examples, and more than 250 ocular images, diagrams and tables.
