In medicine the first encounters with reality can be daunting, never more so than with eye disorders. Despite theoretical knowledge, the novice lacks experience when having to treat real patients. This concise book bridges the gap between theory and practice, providing an approach to ophthalmic history taking, examination, diagnosis, treatment and referral. Written by ophthalmologists who are still close enough to their early experiences to appreciate what is needed, the book is organised in a very easy to access format. Contents include: What you should ask What you should see What you should do Useful glossary of ophthalmic terms and abbreviations This book is written for all those who are at the sharp end of dealing with eye conditions including GPs, A and AE staff, optometrists, nurses and fledgling ophthalmologists.Fraser, Scott is the author of 'Eye Know How' with ISBN 9780727914132 and ISBN 0727914138.
