  • Authors: Adam M. Sillito

Description

The eye is our window to the world and the loss of its function has a most profound effect on our ability to interact with the world around us. Despite this there is a tendency to underestimate the range, complexity and subtlety of the processes that sustain its function. This volume presents a view which attempts to draw together various aspects of our understanding of the autonomic neural control of the eye and linked aspects of its pathophysiology. Areas covered include nervous control of the cornea, accommodation, the Edinger-Westphal Nucleus, purinergic signalling together with retinal and corneal transplantation. The objective of Nervous Control of the Eye is to provide researchers with an insight into the relative significance of the different components involved in optic innervation.

The Brain and Regulation of Eye Movement (2012) by A. Shakhnovich PDF

 

Ebook Info

  • Published: 2012
  • Number of pages: 200 pages
  • Format: PDF
  • File Size: 5.48 MB
  • Authors: A. Shakhnovich

Description

Dr. Shakhnovich brought out the original Russian edition of this work in 1974. Fully half of that book was concerned with his own studies of eye movements. These included observations on patients with neuromuscular disorders that produced unique oculomotor deficits. Other anomalies of eye motility resulted from local changes in cerebral and cerebellar blood flow and the effects of surgical intervention for aneurisms and brain tumors. Supplementary experi­ ments included the probing of single units in the motor and visual brain areas of rabbits. Still other studies were done on normal human eye movements with the aid of the Yarbus “cap” attachment to the cornea of the eye. A major aim of the original book was to show that eye movements provide a relatively simple illustration of “goal-directed behavior.” This traditional Russian theme, developed by Sechenov, Pavlov, and Bemshtein, was put forth as a unifying concept to explain the author’s findings. Consideration was also given to Western ideas ana problems that dominated the research of the 1950’s and 1960’s. Among these, as summarized by Dr. Shakhnovich, were perceptual constancy, corollary discharge, saccadic suppression, and the effects of image stabilization.

⭐This was a great book that really helped me! It’s easy to read and understand and can used as a reference over and over again. The graphics are great and it is well organized. I highly recommend getting this book if you are doing Trabectome, or really any MIGS as it’s highly relevant to most MIGS procedures. Well done! Thank you

⭐I found the clinical applications in this book to be easily accessible and something I can utilize when evaluating glaucoma patients who are ready for cataract surgery or progressing under traditional therapy. In this book, Dr. Okeke lays a framework for any provider to establish whether a patient is a good or sub-optimal candidate for trabectome, but in doing so, delivers so many clinical pearls, it will make you re-evaluate how you systematically examine your daily glaucoma patients. It is an excellent reference for trabectome, MIGS, and glaucoma care in general.

⭐The book is written in a very delightful style and exceptionally informative! A must for anyone interested in MIGS!

⭐Dr. Okeke offers step-by-step details of the process one should go through when contemplating not just Trabectome surgery, but her advice is relevant for any patient facing any Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery. As a glaucoma specialist myself, I found this book to be very informative for glaucoma surgeons who may be starting out with MIGS procedures as well. A great read!

⭐Dr. Okeke’s book about trabectome surgery is an excellent guide and teaching tool. I personally have gained a lot of insight and tips reading her book and would recommend it to both residents and attendings who are interested in learning about trabectome and MIGS!

⭐Using this book as an optometry intern has been a wonderful resource. Dr. Okeke does an excellent job explaining glaucoma management and the importance in appropriate referrals for trabectome, MIGS. Overall, highly recommend for anyone wanting to broaden their understanding of glaucoma care!

⭐This is a phenomenal review of Trabectome surgery and is filled with many useful pearls for any MIGS surgeon. Highly recommended.

⭐Well organized, very informative. Great read for both co-managing optometrist and surgeons to better understand trabectome as a treatment option for glaucoma patients.
