Retina Medical & Surgical Management

This book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and management of retinal diseases and disorders.

Divided into nine sections, text begins with an introduction to basic sciences and diagnostics. The following sections provide in depth coverage of both medical and surgical treatment of various disorders ? retinal degeneration and fundal dystrophies, macular disease and degeneration, retinal vascular disorders, paediatric retinal disease, choroidal and retinal inflammations, trauma, and problems requiring surgical intervention.

The final section discusses miscellaneous conditions such as ocular tumours, toxic and photic retinopathies, and phakomatoses.

Highly illustrated with clinical photographs, OCT and angiography images, and tables, the book provides online access to a selection of videos demonstrating surgical procedures covered in the text.
