Oftalmologi

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.  

The field of contact lenses continues to evolve at a rapid pace, with new optical designs and vision correction options continually being developed. Additionally, the rapid expansion of clinical instrumentation offers eye care practitioners a wide choice of investigative techniques for assessing in-eye contact lens performance and diagnosing adverse reactions.   Now in its fourth edition, Contact Lens Practice has been thoroughly updated and revised to capture these developments and more, and translate them into an organised and easily digestible resource. Written and edited by award-winning author, researcher, and lecturer, Professor Nathan Efron, this title provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of the scientific foundations and clinical applications of contact lens fitting. The text has been refreshed by the inclusion of five new authors - a mixture of scientists and clinicians, all of whom are at the cutting edge of their specialty.  Serves as an essential companion and guide to current thinking and practice in the content lens field, ideal for use by optometrists, ophthalmologists, orthoptists, opticians, students, and contact lens industry professionals. Presents subject matter in a clear and logical format to allow the reader to quickly identify and comprehend key information. Features highly illustrated chapters in full colour, helping the reader to visualize core concepts. Includes completely rewritten chapters, by new authors, on scleral and corneo-scleral contact lenses, high ametropia, therapeutic applications, post-surgical lens fitting, and practice management. A new chapter on Post-Surgery Management consolidates core information on post-operative management involving contact lenses. Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Storungen des Augeninnendrucks konnen zu gravierenden Augenerkrankungen wie z.B. dem Glaukom fuhren. Das Verstandnisfur dieEntstehung des Augeninnendrucks und dessen klinische Bedeutung als Kreislaufparameter ist daher fur die Fruherkennung von Augeninnendruckstorungen unerlasslich. Dieses Buch vermittelt grundlegende Kenntnisse der Entstehung von Augeninnendruckstorungen im klinischen Gesamtzusammenhang. Folgende Fragen werden beantwortet: Wie kommt der Augeninnendruck zustande? Wie kann man ihn diagnostisch als Hilfsmittel einsetzen? Welche Aussagekraft hat er? Wie ist der Augeninnendruck mit dem allgemeinen Kreislauf verknupft? Wie ist der Augeninnendruck mit dem Hirnkreislauf verknupft? Wie ist der Augeninnendruck mit dem Liquor cerebrospinalis verknupft? Daruber hinaus werden Methoden zur korrekten Messung des Augeninnendrucks umfassend erlautert und die geschichtliche Entwicklung der verschiedenen Messmethoden dargestellt.
