Full Description
"Pediatric Neuro-Ophthalmology" is geared for clinicians who care for children with diseases that affect both the eye and brain. To the best of my knowledge, this publication represents the first textbook in the field of pediatric neuro-ophthalmology. Previously, clinicians caring for such patients would need to consult a variety of references to obtain the necessary information that is now succinctly presented in this single source. The book is designed to provide the clinician practical guidelines for the diagnosis and management of children with both simple and complex neuro-ophthalmological diseases. The authors also present detailed background information as well as an extensive review of past and current medical literature on the relevant topics."
