Highlights key information and important features through boxes, tables, and algorithms

Optic nerve diseases is the second commonest cause of blindness world-wide. The diagnosis and clinical management of these conditions depends critically on accurate, reliable and sensitive methods of assessing damage to the optic nerve fibres. The techniques currently available include functional tests (such as visual perimetry, electro-diagnostic tests or evaluation of the pupillary light reflex (PLR)), and anatomical methods of assessing the optic disc or nerve fibre layer within the eye (such as optical coherence tomography or scanning laser polarimetry). This book presents new research on this field.

In this 5th edition of the concise and clearly written best selling title, all the chapters have been thoroughly updated and expanded, particularly the sections on the retinal, macular, phacoemulsification, lasik, new equipment and ophthalmic drugs.The book is generously illustrated with more than 200 colour pictures and is an excellent volume for medical students, general practitioners, ophthalmic students and all paramedical personnel who have to deal with common eye diseases.

Inside this book are reflections on the nature of vision and blindness. Further, there are explorations of interpretive research, and presentations of some seminal and contemporary publications in the field of blindness. The other major fodder for conversation with you the reader is an elaborated example of empirical research entitled Blind Online Learners. Each element of this inquiry is explicitly reflected upon as an example of interpretive research. This book is intended for four intersecting groups of readers. If you are a philosopher, closet or sanctioned, then you cannot ponder the nature of being without due consideration for vision, and cannot contemplate the role of seeing in our lives without listening to the stories of those who are blind. The tales within this text are particularly contemporaneous because they are contextualized by the cyber-phenomena of online learning. This segues to the second group of readers, as the described empirical research was originally intended to bring greater depth and breadth of understanding to the field of educational technology, particularly as it intersects with disability studies. There is a paucity of published literature that has inquired into disabled online learners, and this research study responds to that call. Third, this book may be used as a textbook on approaches to interpretive empirical research. It is as close as one may come to a recipe, walking students through a specific example. Because it is situated in actual empirical research, the intention was that it avoid the trap of being prescriptive or formulaic. Finally, the text is intended for readers interested in the field of blindness. The text reviews some of the seminal and contemporary research on blindness, and then presents an elaborated example of what we can and should expect to emerge in the knowledge production industry, changing what it means to be blind.

The consequences of ageing populations combined with the strain to the human eye caused by computers and widespread poor nutritional practices has resulted in an upsurge of research dealing with vision. This new book presents leading-edge research in this field.

1918. Based upon more than 1000 eye examinations and upon the results of the latest ray researches; includes detailed charts.

On 22 November 2003, the House of Representatives voted 220 to 215 to approve the conference report on H.R. 1, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernisation Act of 2003. The Senate, on November 24th, voted 54 to 44 to approve the conference report. The bill was signed by the President in a ceremony on December 8th. The legislation adds a prescription drug benefit to Medicare and replaces the existing Medicare+Choice program with a new Medicare Advantage program that establishes managed care payments based on a system of bids and benchmarks. The bill also contains numerous provisions that would generally increase fee-for-service payments within Medicare's Part A and Part B program (also known as traditional Medicare), especially for rural health care providers; numerous regulatory and administrative practices will also be modified. This book discusses the fee-for-service (FFS) provisions of the legislation, those affecting Medicaid as well as the Medicare cost containment provisions. It compares the provisions in the bill as enacted with those in the Medicare reform bills that were originally passed by the Senate and the House. through VIII; some FFS provisions are included in Titles VIII through X as noted. The cost containment provisions are in Title VIII and the Medicaid and other provisions are in Title X. CONTENTS: Preface; Introduction; Changes to Medicare's Fee for Service Program; Index.
