The text's distinguished authors have perfected the most frequently performed oculoplastic surgical techniques. Starting with eyelid repair, their atlas is designed to instruct all ophthalmologists who wish to learn these techniques and thus enhance their income. Mastery of these procedures is made easier by following the step-by-step illustrations that are complemented by 22 video clips on 2 CD-ROMs. The study of the supporting anatomy, followed by clear-cut guidelines with heavily-illustrated techniques, offers a format which will allow the learner to gain the necessary understanding for achieving a more favorable result.

he desire to teach and the fulfillment attained from teaching T have again prompted us to produce a work that we hope will be both useful and enlightening to our readers. The field of oculoplastic surgery has grown and evolved to include all aspects of eyelid and facial plastic surgery. Our literature must now reflect the advancements and direction of our field. Knowledge of anatomy, the basis of all surgery and the root of surgical princi pIes and techniques, is the basis of our ability to deli ver the highest quality care to our patients. We have therefore combined text and diagrams, and supplemented them with CD-ROM digital video technology to provide to those who wish to perform this surgery the best possible instruction and prepa ration. We hope that our attempts to accomplish this will be rewarded by the use of our material by our colleagues and the acknowledgment of our unique and logical progression in the field of eyelid and facial plastic surgery. Future volumes in this series will cover other aspects of eyelid, lacrimal, facial, and orbital surgery.
