The book is divided into three sections: The first section covers
basic materials (from choice of suture materials to why powdered
gloves can cause latex allergy), instruments (such as why scissors
are right or left handed) and basic techniques (for example, how to
deliberately tie a slip knot and how to avoid doing so
accidentally!). The second section covers local anaesthetic agents
and techniques. The third section describes the most commonly
performed operations and the complications that may be encountered
including how to avoid and how to deal with them. There are also
chapters that deal with the highly important but often neglected
topics of biometry and orbital and lens implant biomaterials and
design. Throughout, the scientific basis has been emphasized where
possible. Professionals who work with ophthalmic patients such as
nursing staff and optometrists will also find a clear description
of the commonly performed procedures to be of interest. * an
easy-to-use book, rectifying any immediate gaps in surgical
knowledge * a highly practical text which covers everything that
the ophthalmic trainee needs to know * beautifully illustrated
text, covering all the basic procedures from anesthesia to
instruments, wounds and their aftercare to the most commonly
performed ophthalmic operations
