Reviews

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

⭐I think many of the photos aren’t distinct enough to be useful. For sure this is a limitation of the print process. An answer to this might be a link to a web page available to purchasers of the book. Also, there was the traditional presentation of the red-herrings that one seldom sees in practice and not enough of the unusual “normal” variations that are sometimes stumpers to clinicians. The printed info basically is available for free at […]This booklet isn’t helpful to me. However, I suppose it fills a niche for some clinicians.

⭐I think this book is very useful but not the cream of the crop as far as retina books are concerned. I think a lot of the pictures are great. I love the short summaries it provides for each disease. I like this book as a secondary resource or as a quick refresher so I think it is useful for these reasons but I would not use it as solitary or primary text due to the small amount of information that it summarizes for each disease. But I like having the book and refer to it from time to time.
