{[['']]}

Four years have elapsed since the publication of the nfth edition of ClilliCll/Opl1t1w/IIIO/0!l!/. Since then many advances have occurred in the speciality including the discovery of new disease processes as well as treatment modalities and diagnostic methods. This edition has therefore been completely revised and expanded to include much new material. The number of illustrations has been considerably increased so that the vast majority of clinical conditions are illustrated. The number of chapters has been increased from 20 to 24 with new chapters on examination. imaging techniques. congenital anomalies and drug-induced conditions.
Emphasis is placed on understanding pathogenesis of disease processes and for the nrst time descriptions of histology have been included. The aim of this book is not to replace the many excellent encyclopaedic multi-author texts and exhaustive bibliographies that are readily available in other publications but to provide the trainee with a systematic. concisely written. wellillustrated and easily assimilated single-volume text that
provides basic knowledge and acts as a stepping-stone from which the reader can further expand his knowledge of opht halmology.
