Clinical Decisions in Glaucoma

Résumé du livre

This edition keeps the structure of the first. It is a management manual, not a textbook. Our goal is to help the ophthalmologist or optometrist care for patents who have or may have glaucoma. We view common glaucoma as a chronic condition, one that is managed for many years in most patients. We present first the general principles underlying our approach to glaucoma care and our overall glaucoma management scheme. Next we detail what to do in the common clinical presentations suggestive of glaucoma. We do not present every possible situation, nor do we discuss every possible permutation of those situations we do present. Rather, we emphasize the common conditions and conditions for which there is specific treatment. -- Preface.
