A team of nationally known authorities are rewriting the definitive treatise on this essential topic, with detailed coverage of both vision science and clinical practice. Carefully edited and abundantly illustrated, this work will be the essential reference for both students and practitioners. Exhaustive reference lists document the remarkable range of studies that have advanced the field, and provide an invaluable resource for further study and research.
Features:
* Coverage within this work includes: Basic principles and analysis of refractive status, Adjunct examinations, The refraction, Latest in electronic and computerized analysis and prescription of optical corrections, Special considerations: including infants and children, amblyopia, strabismus, hugh refractive error, the elderly, and patients with low vision.
* Colour illustrations within the book provide essential information on colour vision testing, corneal topography, and other vital topics.
* Gives practical hands-on approach to match the clinical situation making it easier to link principles with clinical practice.
* Provides clinicians with the knowledge to update their techniques.
