The specialty of medical retina remains one of the most challenging
fields in ophthalmology. Fortunately, in the past few years the
standard of knowledge in the area of medical retina has improved
substantially. The insight in basic mechanisms of disease has been
expanded and novel diagnostic and efficacious therapeutic
strategies have been developed bridging the gap between laboratory
and clinical science. For example, new developments in ophthalmic
imaging have contributed significantly to our understanding of the
pathophysiology and treatment of various retinal diseases. This
volume encompasses the application of confocal scanning laser
ophthalmoscopy including fundus autofluorescence imaging as well as
the mapping of central visual function by microperimetry. It also
covers anti-VEGF therapy that has revolutionized the treatment of
neovascular age-related macular degeneration. The next big
challenge, the management and treatment targets for dry AMD is also
presented as well as the practical relevance for the management of
diabetic macular edema and retinal vein occlusions. Written by
world-renowned experts, this authoritative work on medical retina
is both comprehensive and practical and will serve the need of all
ophthalmologists as well as optometrists and ophthalmic nurses to
keep up-to-date with the new developments in the important field of
medical retina.
