Written to help trainee ophthalmologists and now the recognized
text on optics for the examinations of the Royal College of
Ophthalmologists and the Royal Surgical Colleges, this textbook
approaches the subject from first principles and assumes no
previous knowledge of optics. The book has been kept as simple as
possible and is liberally complemented with diagrams which are
designed to be easily understood and memorised. Only the most
fundamental and clinically useful mathematical formulae are quoted,
and the optical principles are applied to clinical
situations.
Ophthalmology examinations have changed substantially since the
last edition was written and a total rewrite of this essential
guide has become necessary. The third edition has been made more
comprehensive and detailed to keep up with these changes and
incorporates three new chapters - on refractive surgery, contact
lenses and lasers. Other new material includes photometry, visual
acuity, contrast sensitivity, colour vision, absorptive lenses,
fluorescence, ultrasound, and the specular microscope.
