Lasik Surgery: Tips and Tricks 1st Edition (2008) by Shashi Kapoor PDF

Description

In the past 20 years refractive surgery has evolved from incisional to laser-based procedures. And the most common and widely performed procedure worldwide is LASIK (Laser in Situ Keratomileusis). Since its inception, LASIK has won over both the ophthalmologist and the patient. It is relatively easy to use, quickly effective, and less painful than other techniques.This book brings together the latest trends and advances in LASIK, with 17 chapters written by 28 international expert contributors, and edited by 3 globally recognised pioneers of LASIK treatment. There is also a free DVD-Rom, with 10 different demonstrations of techniques, including Pentacam, which has never been made available before. Ophthalmologists nowadays require a single source of comprehensive information on LASIK urgery, and this book fulfills that need.Contents1.Preoperative Assessment for LASIK 2.

Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Good and simple introduction for Lasik surgery.. I think it’s a bargain deal with such a price comparing to other very expensive Lasik text books..

⭐It is not a great book, has a lot of comercial bias, but good for the value. Customer was perfect, sent the book before the planing date.
