Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
βDon’t be fooled. This textbook has NO paediatric ophthalmology in it! It is essentially a neuro-ophthalmology manual. To it’s credit, it has very up-to-date information and the “highlighted text box” style makes it easy to read.
