Customer Reviews

Breeze to Read
This book is a breeze to read and help you get the whole jist in order to make a generalized diagnosis when one sees a patient. It also includes the Examination techniques. But, you will still require a textbook in order to write the answers to difficult theory questions. I STRONGLY recommend this book as the BEST PRIMER to your approach to Opthalmology as it is quick reading, helps you become familiar and understand the meanings of all the words used in opthalmology(and good glossary, too), has a very systematic/organized approach, and the information just sinks in. After breezing through this book(3 days), you can run through your Opthalmology textbooks much, much faster.

Best ophthalmology book I've seen for general practicioners!
This book is a must for physician assistant students and medical students currently taking an ophthalmology course. It explains terms very simply in an easily readable format. It has made ophthalmology ridiculously simple for me.

Essential Reading before your Clerkship
I was given this textbook by the attending before the rotation and told to read it before showing up the first day. I'm glad I did, because it was the perfect introduction to clinical ophthalmology. It can be read in an evening. Not suitable as a reference, but fulfills it's objectives admirably.
