Ophthalmology and Optometry

A clinical introduction to the principles of geometrical and visual optics, aimed at practitioners and students in optometry and vision sciences.

A comprehensive guide detailing the technology, design principles, and clinical applications of optical devices used in Ophthalmology and Optometry.

A textbook focusing on systemic disease conditions relevant to optometric practice, addressing the increased responsibility of optometrists who prescribe topical and systemic medications, necessitating familiarity with general clinical medicine.

A comprehensive text covering the theory, investigation, and practical applications related to normal binocular vision, suitable for clinicians and lecturers in optometry and orthoptics.

An introductory analysis of wavefront aberrometry, focusing on the current theories and concepts of optical image degradation. It details monochromatic aberrations (spherical aberration, coma) and the role of diffraction, pupil size, the anatomical sources of aberrations (cornea, lens), and the clinical necessity of these measurements for advanced refractive surgery and managing complex refractive errors.

An introductory manual detailing the procedures and methods of retinoscopy, a fundamental technique used by eye care professionals for the diagnosis of refractive errors and ocular refraction.

A comprehensive and classic manual detailing the fundamental principles, methods, and practical application of measuring and correcting refractive errors of the human eye.

A comprehensive textbook detailing the fundamental principles of geometric and physical optics, focusing on practical application for visual health professionals. It covers refraction techniques, lens measurement, optical instrumentation, and the correction of common visual disorders.

A comprehensive guide detailing essential clinical procedures, best practices, and standards of care for practitioners working in primary eye care settings.

Volume II of this comprehensive handbook focuses on the instrumentation, technologies, and methods used for the correction of vision problems, essential for practitioners and researchers in visual sciences.

Comprehensive guidelines for visual acuity assessment, including how to measure spatial capacity, quantify high contrast vision loss, and monitor disease progression. Details cover factors influencing accurate testing, standards for recording VA (Snellen and ETDRS), and protocols for measuring very low acuity (Count Fingers, Hand Motions, Light Perception).

A beginner's guide focusing on the technical aspects ('teching') relevant to optometric and ophthalmic practice. It is published under the 'Eye and Vision Research Developments' series.
