This book provides ophthalmologists with a simple, clear presentation of epidemiologic and statistical techniques relevant to conducting, interpreting, and assimilating clinical research. The text is divided into two parts: the first covers epidemiologic concepts, various study types (e.g., prospective or longitudinal), and study organization (use of controls, randomness, sources of bias, choice of sample size); the second is devoted to the selection and use of relevant statistical manipulations, including determining sample size and testing statistical significance. It includes examples covering blindness registry data, incidence of visual field loss, sensitivity and specificity of tests for glaucoma, and sampling bias in studies of intraocular lenses.
This book analyzes the management of meniscus lesions, tracing the history of treatment over 120 years, including discussions on manipulation, total and partial meniscectomy, and intramural resection techniques to preserve knee stability.
A detailed Q&A guide covering complex topics in ophthalmic anatomy, including structures like the cavernous sinus and rectus muscles, cellular physiology (blood-aqueous barrier, dark adaptation), and genetic disorders such as Leber's hereditary optic atrophy.
