Reviews

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

⭐This is such a wonderful book and so worth getting as an e-book. It is great as a reference, but I even read it cover to cover. This book is full of clinical pearls and useful information for any clinician who encounters pediatric retina in his or her practice. I am a pediatric ophthalmologist and I thought it was perfect for me to understand more about this field as I manage and co-manage many of these patients. Also, I know and trust ME Hartnett to be a reliable expert in the field and a meticulous scientist and clinician, so I knew that I would trust anything with her name on it.

⭐This comprehensive textbook, edited by Mary Elizabeth Hartnett (also a contributor) is an essential textbook for learning and reference. Internationally acclaimed physicians, surgeons, and scientists have contributed to an updated edition that provides in-depth coverage of pediatric retina diseases and conditions. Beautifully and effectively illustrated for easy comprehension. An important addition to any library.WHC
