1098 full-color images perfectly capture the appearance of the complete range of corneal and external eye diseases. Compiled by two of the world's foremost authorities on the subject and created using state-of-the-art digital imaging technology, they represent the sharpest, most accurate collection of photographs of the cornea ever published. Updates include a wealth of new images contributed by ophthalmologists from around the world; updated and expanded coverage of refractive surgery, external eye manifestations of chemical and biological warfare, and molecular genetics of corneal dystrophies; and a new Image Bank on CD-ROM. This comprehensive visual library of corneal disorders is ideal for reference during patient evaluation, screening, and treatment.
