"Combines academic depth with clear clinical explanation; still the
best visual optics textbook around." Professor Roger Anderson,
Vision Science, University of Ulster "Essential reading for all
those interested in the optics of the eye and the measurement of
vision and ocular characteristics" Dr Colin Fowler, Optometry &
Vision Sciences, Aston University "Bennett & Rabbetts' clinical
visual optics cleverly explores and combines the founding
principles, clinical relevance and some more advanced aspects of
optical techniques, instrumentation and applications in a unique
and thought-provoking manner. An invaluable resource to the
student, practitioner and clinical visual scientist alike." Dr
James Loughnan, Optometry, Dublin Institute of Technology "Numerous
clinical anecdotes bridge the gap between theory and practice,
resulting in a text which will be an invaluable guide to students
of optometry, researchers and practitioners alike." Dr Robert
Cubbidge, Optometry & Vision Sciences, Aston University The
fourth edition of this classic textbook has been brought thoroughly
up to date with revised chapters on Ocular Aberrations, Visual
Examination of the Eye, and Distribution and Ocular Dioptics of
Ametropia. New contributors have been added and the book has been
completely redesigned using colour to offer a more accessible
layout and enhance the many line illustrations. The new companion
website has valuable additional resources including a simulation of
subjective refraction, video clips showing clinical procedures and
extra appendices to the book. This comprehensive review of optics
of the human eye covers: Refractive correction and the instruments
used in: eye examination, measurement of visual acuity, contrast
sensitivity, refractive errors, accommodation and binocular vision
The side effects of spectacle and contact lens corrections The
oculo-motor system and stereopsis providing a firm foundation for
further study The dioptics of the eye, including its aberrations
and schematic eyes Thorough theoretical chapters and clinical
chapters that contribute a fundamental understanding of the
procedures, together with sound practical advice The new edition of
Clinical Visual Optics will be invaluable to all those studying
optometry, dispensing optics and physiological optics. The depth of
coverage will make it a prime source of information for the
qualified practitioner or a prospective researcher in these fields.
Classic text providing a comprehensive review of optics of the
human eye Theoretical chapters and clinical chapters contribute to
a thorough understanding of procedures Sound practical advice
