Description
Based on a highly successful series of articles published through the "Optician" journal, this text outlines the range of clinical ocular
investigative techniques available to the optometrist and dispensing optician. High-quality, full-color illustrations accompany clear
descriptions of all clinical procedures associated with effective ocular examination, from the basics of how to use the slit lamp to
more complex visual field assessments such as the examination of ocular blood flow. Clinical, comprehensive and contemporary, this practical
text relates knowledge to practice by outlining the benefits, advantages, disadvantages, and pitfalls of each procedure, as well as when
and where to use it. This book is an invaluable clinical handbook for anyone involved in the examination of the eye.
