Full Description
This book on ophthalmic sub-specialty encompasses a wide range
of disorders of both congenital and acquired origin involving abnormalities of
ocular motility and alignment, the final consequence in most cases being loss of
binocular co-ordination of the eyes. This book covers the basic evaluation diagnosis
and treatment of the most prevalent vision disorders in a clinical optometrist's or
ophthalmologist's practice. Coverage includes the most common non-strabismus
binocular vision disorders, including accommodative and eye movement disorders
as well as ambylopia, myopia, background information, symptoms, case analysis
and management options, control, and binocular vision problems associated with
refractive surgery. This book provides information on vision therapy procedures.
Describes about instrumentation, the latest equipment and computer software. The
latest research on advanced diagnostic and management issues is also included. A
short overview of strabismus with strong genetic basis has been provided to orient
the busy practitioners and the students. Provides an updated material-particularly
on visual surgery and ocular motor disorders with all the five major five ocular
motor-systems, the eyelid and neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations of non-organic
diseases. Serves ophthalmologists, optometrists, postgraduate students and
ophthalmic-surgeons.
