Reviews

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

⭐Neuro-ophthalmology illustrated is a must-have for anyone who cares for patients with ophthalmic or neurological disorders. Not only do I keep a copy of the book in my clinic, but as a faculty in neuro-ophthalmology, I recommend it to my trainees for several reasons. The book is organized into Chapters and sections that cover practically every aspect from history taking, examination, radiological features and management. It is concise, easy to read and has high quality illustrations on virtually every page. A picture as they say is worth a thousand words and to a trainee, visual representation of a clinical sign or radiological finding is easier to comprehend than a description of it. The book is compact and can easily fit in a coat pocket, ready to be referenced at the beside when needed. In summary, this book will be useful for trainees or experienced practitioners (neurology, ophthalmology, optometry or family practice), and dare I say, a steal for the price quoted.

⭐Very good book in neuro-ophthalmology but a little basic for my needs. Recommended for all general ophthalmologists.

⭐This is a fantastic resource for anyone managing patients with neuro-ophthalmic diseases, or anyone interested in clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology. It is filled with illustrations, and all of the figures and tables are very user-friendly while still being comprehensive. There are also ample neuroimaging figures demonstrate classic and rare conditions.The authors have included numerous “Clinical Pearls” throughout the book, distilling the key points of each section. This book has utility for neurologists, ophthalmologists, residents, and medical students. As an added bonus, it is portable, and can be carried around in clinic or on rounds.

⭐This is my favorite go-to neuro-ophthalmology reference! The text is concise and easy to read. The illustrations are of high quality and add a dimension of clarity that I have not found in any other book. It is great as a desktop reference, but also compact enough for residents and students to keep with them during a neuro-ophthalmology rotation. I have no doubt ophthalmologists and neurologists in practice will also find it useful as a quick and authoritative reference.

⭐This book is an amazing resource for all levels – from patients to doctors in training to doctors already practicing in the field. It is unparalleled in the extent and quality of illustrative pictures, which are so essential to understanding the topic. The authors are clearly masters of their topic and expertly present complicated subjects in a way that makes them easy to understand. I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

⭐Neuro-Ophthalmology Illustrated is THE concise guide for evaluation and management of neuro-ophthalmology patients. It is comprehensive enough to cover nearly all situations, but it still provides the essential details in a paperback that can fit in your white coat pocket! I highly recommend this book to all ophthalmology and neurology residents, fellows, and attendings, as an essential book in their “go-to” library.

⭐Neuro-ophthalmology can be a tough subject to write about. Some handbooks out there either don’t give you enough information or provide you with so much information and leave you a bit confused. “Neuro-ophthalmology Illustrated” is well-written, thoughtfully organized, and the the illustrations are extremely helpful. This handbook is a must have for neuro-ophthalmologists, ophthalmologists, and neurologists…both in training and in practice.

⭐This is absolutely the best compact neuro-ophthalmology resource available. It is jam packed with beautiful illustrations and pearls from two clinical masters of neuro-ophthalmology. Medical students, residents, neurologists, ophthalmologists, emergency department physicians, and primary care doctors would all find this to be an extremely accessible and accurate resource when faced with a patient presenting with a neuro-ophthalmologic issue.

⭐Livro de bolso muito bom. Fácil de ler e com ótimas ilustrações. Aborda diversos temas de maneira rápida e pratica.

⭐This book met my expectations, nicely done with very useful pictures. A must-have for both the neuro-ophthalmologists and the general ophthalmologists!
