Ocular Disease: Mechanisms and Management

Ocular Disease-a newly introduced companion volume to the classic Adler's Physiology of the Eye-correlates basic
science and clinical management to describe the how and why of eye disease processes and the related best management
protocols. Editors Leonard A. Levin and Daniel M. Albert-two of the world's leading ophthalmic clinician-scientists-
have recruited as contributors the most expert and experienced authorities available in each of the major areas of
ophthalmic disease specific to ophthalmology: retina, cornea, cataract, glaucoma, uveitis, and more. The concise
chapter structure features liberal use of color-with 330 full-color line artworks, call-out boxes, summaries, and
schematics for easy navigation and understanding. In print and online at expertconsult.com, this comprehensive resource
provides you with a better and more practical understanding of the science behind eye disease and its relation to
treatment.
