Fully revised, the new third edition of the Oxford Handbook of Ophthalmology is a concise, systematic guide to all aspects of diagnosis, assessment, and ongoing management of ophthalmic diseases and conditions. Closely aligned with the curriculum for the ophthalmic postgraduate exams, and containing the most up-to-date clinical guidance and practical advice, this is the essential resource for all those caring for ophthalmic patients. It covers the key information for both trainees and specialists, from clinical methods and the use of ophthalmic instruments, to basic perioperative care and advanced life support protocols. It also includes new chapters covering laser procedures and theatre notes, as well as new sections on emerging technologies such as adaptive optics and gene therapy for retinal diseases.
