Diseases of the Macula

Liberally illustrated throughout with over 400 photographs (300 in full colour), this reference provides a practical
and clinically oriented approach to the diagnosis and management of macular disorders. It covers not only diseases that
primarily affect the macula, such as age-related macular degeneration, but also those that might have an indirect but
never-the-less significant effect on macular function, such as vascular and inflammatory diseases. Many diseases in
this book are illustrated with brief case studies, to help bring them to life and facilitate learning.
