The eyes are our windows to the world, and also the most evolved sense organs of human beings. Ophthalmology, rightly so, occupies an important position in the medical curriculum, which has been reinforced in the modern times with lots of recent innovations and development in this field. Though several books on ophthalmology are available, there was a need of a book which comprehensively deals with the essentials of ophthalmology.
The "Essentials of Ophthalmology" ideally suits the needs of undergraduate medical students and will also be found useful by the general practitioners, paramedical workers in ophthalmology. It may serve as a refresher for the postgraduate students of ophthalmology.
The book covers the essential anatomy, physiology and optics in addition to the clinical methods in ophthalmology, which also covers the use of several appliances in ophthalmology. The various parts of the eyeball: conjunctiva, corneal, sclera, lens, uvea, retina, glaucoma, vitreous, lids, orbits, lacrimal apparatus, ocular motility, neuro-ophthalmology, are all covered in their essential entirety. Separate chapters on Community Ophthalmology, Ocular Pharmacology and Ophthalmic Instruments sum up the relevant points in its 400 pages and 213 illustrations. ISBN 9788123915609
