Full Description
This title is the recipient of Royal Society of Medicine Book Awards 2001. In a highly illustrated format, the "Illustrated Tutorials" summarize the key facts in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of eye conditions. This textbook is an invaluable revision guide for those preparing for professional examinations, and provides a framework for acquiring more in-depth knowledge, which can be found in Kanski's "Clinical Ophthalmology, 6th Edition". The accompanying CD-ROM is a useful resource for those leading teaching sessions, saving time normally spent preparing material. It is accessible enough for trainees to use the slides as a self-assessment tool following a lecture, or even as a guide to presenting a tutorial themselves.
