This book provides a clear, concise and easy to understand guide to the diagnosis and management of strabismus. Throughout the text, a practical approach to examining, diagnosing and treating patients with strabismus is utilised, supported with case studies in the form of patient photographs and ocular motility videos. Flowcharts and tables are included, together with evidence based management plans and suggestions for further reading. Simplifying Strabismus: A Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Management is aimed at optometrists, junior and senior ophthalmologists, as well as any medical professional wishing to improve their knowledge of strabismus.

âIn my opinion is a perfect and brief explanation of basic strabismus knowledge you need as a general ophthalmologist. Well written and concise but accurate.
Thirty years ago, our attention was drawn to the alphabetical incom itances in strabismus. As an elevation in adduction is the most frequent incomitance, we decided to start treating these incomitances. A weak ening procedure of the inferior oblique muscle seemed indicated. How ever, since we wanted to prevent a torsional overcorrection with a head tilt, we displaced the scleral insertion of the oblique muscle towards the equator of the globe. This way, the torsional action of the muscles is saved. A weakening of the horizontal rectus muscles was systematically added, making it a simultaneous horizontal and cyclovertical surgery. Our way to deal with strabismus developed into a coherent entity and the interest of colleagues encouraged us to write it down.We decided to publish a textbook with a theoretical and an extensive practical part. Our approach is based on thirty years of exclusive strabological work, half-time academic and half-time private practice. More than 6500 re sults were analysed and the majority have been published. The con cerned publications are referred to at the end of the first chapter. Private practice allowed to benefit from the fact that patients were operated on by the same surgeon and remained in personal contact during follow-up.

does not vary more than 1 % over the whole surface. Stimulus: The luminance of the stimuli can be regulated by means of neutral density filters. These filters are neither entirely neutral nor completely uniform, but these variations are not significant for perimetry. The maximum luminance of the stimuli is standardized at 1000 asb (316 2 cd.m-). The standard GP for kinetic perimetry has 3 neutral density filters which reduce the luminance by 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 log units respectively. The modification of the GP for static perimetry is supplied with an additional series of four neutral density filters, which allow luminance steps of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 log units. The resulting luminance values, expressed in apostilb, are given in Table I.

Sjögrenâs syndrome is now considered pivotal in the spectrum of auto-immune disorders. It presents in a variety of guises, including fatigue, aches and pains, food and other allergies and not surprisingly is frequently misdiagnosed as, for example, âfibromyalgia, âM.E.â, glandular fever etc. It also frequently overlaps with other auto-immune conditions such as hypothyroidism (Hashimotos), Hughes Syndrome and coeliac disease. Diagnosis is especially important as it usually responds to treatment, notably with quinine derivatives (Plaquenil).

âExcellent
âIt only has very basic information of Sjogren’s. Returned.
âVery expensive, but knowing one of the authors it is comprehensive and the full colour plates are most helpful
The key knowledge assembled in this book comprises todayâs most comprehensive resource on Sjögrenâs syndrome. Sjögrenâs patients require the care of a wide variety of clinical and surgical specialists to treat their disease and improve their quality of life. This volume presents a broad multi-disciplinary approach, enlisting the expertise of well-respected authors from around the world, covering the specialties of rheumatology, ophthalmology, oral medicine, oral surgery, otolaryngology, hematology, and others. This practical clinical resource begins with an overview of Sjögrenâs myths, pearls and tips, information for referring physicians, and diagnostic and classification and criteria. The second section covers pathogenesis, providing the backbone for our understanding current diagnostics and therapeutics. The third section is devoted to clinical manifestations and therapeutic considerations. It covers the entire spectrum of symptoms and treatment, infused with the experience and astute clinical observations of the bookâs contributors. With system-wide coverage of local and systemic therapy, the book examines current therapy, biologics, and emerging therapeutic targets. Presenting many international perspectives, this book creates an inter-connective conduit for the global community of Sjögrenâs patients and physicians.

âExcellent book describing how many countries around the world treat and manage the disease. Great statistic is.
Specific to Ophthalmology, Ophthalmic Photography and Optometry, this book teaches both basic and advanced techniques of examination and documentation of conditions of the human eyeusing the slit lamp biomicroscope.Revised and expanded from the second edition, it now contains over 400 illustrations, and two new chapters, namely; Stereo and Digital Imaging with the Photo Slit Lamp Biomicroscope, and; External Photography. Starting with basic principles, the book progresses through advanced techniques demonstrating methods of illumination as applied to specific abnormalities. Numerous clinical photographs illustrate the use of each form of illumination to provide a broad perspective. Special techniques, using accessory lenses and vital dyes, are also described in detail.

âThis book is essential to anyone learning how to view the Eye with a Slit Lamp. For Ophthalmic Photographythe book provides both illustrations and photographic examples to explain how to best document Eye Pathologywith a Slit Lamp and camera. I was involved in Eye Photography for 48 years and used this book often until Iretired and left it behind. I purchased this as a gift to a friend who had much experience with a Slit Lamp but noPhotography experience. In my opinion there is none better.
âGreat teaching book.
âloved how informative this book and the amount of pictures describing slit lamp are excellent with they elaborate more on fundus exam with 78 or 90 D lens otherwise good book for young ophthalmologists
âvery useful. lot of tricks. arrived very fast. thanks!
âThe essential guide to slit lamp photography, a wonderful tutor and reference book.
âExcellent. manual for slit lamp photography
âThis is a very good guidebook for ophthalmologists.
âGreat
âEverything as expected
âas described
âMore towards the photography aspect of slit lamp examinations

In this book an international panel of authors offer a clear, step-by-step approach to Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE), a new refractive procedure approved for the treatment of myopia and astigmatism that is a truly minimally invasive key-hole type surgery. The book opens by discussing important fundamentals of the technology, followed by a close look at the healing response. The current surgical techniques are then described in detail with the aim of providing easy-to-understand guidance for all who wish to perform SMILE surgery or to identify solutions to pitfalls that may arise during the learning curve. Further sections cover the clinical science relating to SMILE (explaining underlying principles), discuss ongoing investigations to further expand the spectrum of SMILE surgery and offer suggestions on how to market the procedure and communicate it to the prospective patient. This guide is âa mustâ for everyone who wishes to enter the exciting world of SMILE.
