Reviews

From the reviews:

"The Essentials in Ophthalmology series attempts to bridge the time gap between journal publications and up-to-date textbook distillation of medical knowledge. … The editors of this series have cleverly packaged information in a format that will keep clinicians on the forefront of thoughts in the different disciplines of ophthalmology. … Readers will be relieved and undoubtedly satisfied with this concise text that provides clinically useful updates in important areas of glaucoma diagnosis and management." (L. J. Katz, Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, Vol. 244, 2006)
