This book provides a comprehensive review on the surgical care of
patients requiring removal of an eye, as well as consequent
functional and cosmetic rehabilitation. In addition to covering the
crafting of ocular prosthetics, Anophthalmia: The Expert's Guide to
Medical and Surgical Management also addresses the psychological
and physical adjustments to losing an eye, and adapting to that
loss. Divided into five parts, Anophthalmia functions as a go-to
reference for ophthalmologists and oculoplastic surgeons. The book
begins by laying out the clinical foundations and history of
anophthalmia. Part II and III discuss surgical removal techniques,
prosthesis fitting and maintenance, congenital anophthalmia,
infections and inflammations, and newer surgical techniques such as
osseointegration after orbital exenteration. Finally, the book
concludes with chapters on prosthetic options including scleral
shells, keratopigmentation procedures, and cosmetic contact lenses.
Unique in content, Anophthalmia is a vital resource for practicing
ophthalmologists, oculoplastic surgeons, and all medical
professionals who care for patients with surgical and traumatic
loss of the eye and orbital tissues. Additionally, sufficient
detail and explanation make this work accessible to those in
training, such as medical students, ophthalmology residents, and
fellows.
