Ophthalmic Interactive with Clinical Correlation

This brief book focuses on that information most vital for the nonAophthalmologist.

Many ocular conditions present first to the primary care physician.

Included among these are refractive problems, ocular inflammaAtions, trauma, amblyopia, strabismus and a variety of additional disorders that cause diminished vision or ocular discomfort.

It is essential for the nonAophthalmologist to know which problems to treat himself and which to refer.

He must be sufficiently knowledgeable to detect subtle conditions such as amblyopia, which may be irreversible if not noted early and properly treated.The book gives strong emphasis to common disorders, their diagnosis and management at the level of the non-ophthalmologist - up to the point of referral.

Only minimal emphasis is given to the technical diagnostic and therapeutic meaAsures that are the exclusive domain of the ophthalmologist.
