Description
Glaucoma launches "The Requisites In Ophthalmology" project as the initial volume in a series of seven publications. Beginning with a foundation that applies basic sciences to trace the progression of the disease, Dr. Alward offers a comprehensive and detailed approach to the diagnosis and treatment methods of glaucoma, for both areas of medicine and surgery. It combines a clear, concise text along with various diagrams, black and white illustrations, colour photos, and surgical drawings in order to provide ophthalmologists and ophthalmology residents with an accurate and exact diagnostic and technical tool that covers the most frequently used medical and surgical procedures in today's treatment of glaucoma. "The Requisites In Ophthalmology: Glaucoma" serves as a perfect resource for the modern management of the leading cause of blindness worldwide.
