From reviews of previous editions:
"It is beautifully laid out and has excellent photographs and
drawings - an excellent text for the intended audience - residents in
ophthalmology." American Journal of Ophthalmology
"It is difficult to fault this excellent book. It has become a
standard text for trainee ophthalmologists." British Journal of
Ophthalmology
"Nothing has come close to superseding it in 10 years. If you only
ever buy one textbook this is the one." Optician
Reviewers' comments and testimonials for the fifth edition
'It is fair to say that many practitioners use this book as their
main reference text in practice. This edition is very professional in
its presentation and content, and is more user-friendly than its
predecessor.'
'It is a best seller and will remain so.'
'Superb illustrations which complement a formatted text which is not
too detailed but which summarises all the important points related to
each topic. This format is excellent for teaching junior
ophthalmologists to develop a rational and reproducible approach to
each condition standing them in good stead for examinations.'
'From a content standpoint the book does an excellent job in
presenting clinical slides of many ocular pathologies and contains a
great deal of information. I am content to say that this book would
certainly be on my list!'
