THE YALE GUIDE TO OPHTHALMIC SURGERY

This illustrated pocket guide, edited by members of the Yale Ophthalmology faculty, concisely outlines the most common ophthalmic surgical and laser procedures for easy reference in the operating room and clinic. The Yale Guide to Ophthalmic Surgery reviews the clinical context of each case and provides a step-by-step procedural overview. Critical steps are illustrated with simple line drawings to facilitate understanding. The following specialty areas are covered: cornea, general/comprehensive, glaucoma, pediatrics, oculoplastics, retina and trauma. A companion Website features the fully searchable text, a color image bank, and procedural videos.
