Emergency ophthalmology is an area full of pitfalls for the unwary
primary care practitioner. Vitreoretinal disorders make up the
majority of emergency sight-threatening conditions, and a wide and
increasingly varied range of conditions of the eye present in
primary care settings. Correct diagnosis at initial presentation,
and appropriate and speedy referral, are extremely important. This
book is therefore an essential reference for the primary care
physician, who is often the first to see these patients and is in a
position of responsibility for decision-making.

This book provides a practical overview of pathology and
interventions in the suprachoroidal space of the eye. Concise and
well-structured chapters examine anatomy, physiology and
pathophysiology, suprachoroidal haemorrhage, choroidal effusions
and ocular hypotony management, imaging, suprachoroidal buckling
for retinal detachment, drug delivery, suprachoroidal glaucoma
devices, subretinal gene therapy and suprachoroidal retinal
implant. Suprachoroidal Space Interventions meets the need for a
book that improves awareness of established and novel interventions
in the suprachoroidal space, particularly as it has been
increasingly recognised as a potential space for glaucoma surgery,
drug deliveries and retinal surgery. Ophthalmologists and
scientists with an interest in glaucoma and retinal surgery will
find the book to be an easy to use reference tool for a rapidly
developing area of ophthalmology that can be applied in modern
clinical practice.
