The Handbook of Retinal Disease is an invaluable resource for ophthalmologists, particularly those working in smaller centres where opportunities for clinical teaching can sometimes be limited. This comprehensive guide provides a unique approach to understanding retinal disorders, using real-life examples for optimal clarity.
Key features of the Handbook of Retinal Disease include:
– Over 80 in-depth case studies, each detailing a specific retinal disorder from presenting problem to treatment plan.
– A helpful table of signs and symptoms accompanying each case, assisting with differential diagnosis.
– Pertinent questions to ask patients to gain further insight into their condition.
– Relevant imaging orders, with a focus on the latest techniques in retinal disease diagnosis such as Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), colour and red fundus photography, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, and fundus autofluorescence.
The Handbook goes beyond just providing a final diagnosis. It offers concise information on each diagnosis, including a tailored treatment plan that acknowledges the individual needs of each patient. It also provides guidance on follow-up care and recommendations for further reading, ensuring ophthalmologists are equipped with all the necessary tools for effective patient care.
The second edition of this guide further enhances its value by featuring high-quality images, a highly structured deductive approach, and a focus on the latest imaging techniques used in the diagnosis of retinal diseases.
This book is not just a handbook; it’s a roadmap to better understanding and managing retinal diseases. So if you’re an ophthalmologist seeking a comprehensive, clinically relevant guide that offers practical, real-world examples, the Handbook of Retinal Disease is the resource you’ve been looking for.
