⭐Clear and concise.Very helpful.I wish there were more illustration and images for each disease.Also the optic section needs to be more in depth not a quick overview

The introductory chapters are about anatomy, optics and examination techniques–ideal for learners. The later chapters are a comprehensive coverage of eye diseases.

⭐As a layperson who has had 4 eye surgery events, I have found this book to be a great help in my understanding and appreciating the procedures which I underwent. Both the text and photography are clear and comprehensible. This book can help anyone learn and understand more about their eyes and how they are treated by the medical profession.
