When Magic Eye images hit the publishing world in the 1990s, the response was as magical as the 3D images popping from their colorful backgrounds. Viewers couldnt get these best-selling books fast enough. In fact, Magic Eye I, II, and III rode the New York Times best-seller list for 34 weeks and eventually sold more than 20 million copies. Now Beyond 3D: Improve Your Vision with Magic Eye takes this phenomenon to another level.Beyond 3D examines the medical benefits and scientific possibilities related to viewing these remarkable images. Clearly explained in lay terms and through the use of numerous Magic Eye illustrations, the book not only helps readers see the images, it identifies and demonstrates the many physical and performance-related enrichments that may result.Magic Eye has long been a worldwide hit. Besides North America, Japan has been a highly receptive market for the Magic Eye way of seeing. Magic Eye Inc. has already produced a similar scientific-based book for that marketwith a notable reception. Beyond 3D promises to bring its benefits to a wider audience, a group eager to experience results ranging from reduced computer eyestrain and diminished stress levels to improved overall vision and lengthened attention spans. Magic Eye continues its fascinating run!

Die Anasthesie bei operativen Eingriffen im Kopfbereich bietet eine Reihe von Besonderheiten und Schwierigkeiten. Sie reichen von der engen raumlichen Nachbarschaft des Arbeitsgebietes beider Beteiligten uber das Auftreten spezieller Reflexe und Komplikationen bis hin zu Lagerungsproblemen. Dieser Band stellt die anasthesiologischen Probleme aus der Sicht aller beteiligten Fachbereiche dar - Neurochirurgie, Ophthalmologie, Hals-Nasen-Ohren-Heilkunde sowie Zahn-Mund- und Kieferchirurgie. In der Ophthalmochirurgie, der Kieferchirurgie und der HNO-Klinik reicht das Altersspektrum vom Kleinkind bis zum Greisenalter mit all den damit verbundenen eigenen Fragestellungen. In der Neurochirurgie sind unter anderem endokrinologische Besonderheiten und die Gefahren der Luftembolie zu beachten. Im Mittelpunkt dieses interdisziplinaren Gesprachs steht der Austausch von Wunschen und Vorstellungen zwischen den operativen Spezialdisziplinen und der Anasthesie, um eine Optimierung des Einsatzes verschiedener Narkosetechniken in Bezug auf die spezifischen Operationsverfahren zu erreichen.

In this book an international panel of authors offer a clear, step-by-step approach to Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE), a new refractive procedure approved for the treatment of myopia and astigmatism that is a truly minimally invasive key-hole type surgery. The book opens by discussing important fundamentals of the technology, followed by a close look at the healing response. The current surgical techniques are then described in detail with the aim of providing easy-to-understand guidance for all who wish to perform SMILE surgery or to identify solutions to pitfalls that may arise during the learning curve. Further sections cover the clinical science relating to SMILE (explaining underlying principles), discuss ongoing investigations to further expand the spectrum of SMILE surgery and offer suggestions on how to market the procedure and communicate it to the prospective patient. This guide is "a must" for everyone who wishes to enter the exciting world of SMILE.

This book presents a unique approach not found in any other text for those looking to improve the clinical results of refractive surgery by gaining a better understanding of corneal biomechanics and the instrumentation related to it. Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides authoritative coverage of the interactions of the cornea and the bioinstrumentation, such as corneal topography, pachymetry, aberrometers, tonometry and optical coherence tomography. Organized in an easy-to-read manner, Corneal Biomechanics and Refractive Surgery is designed for refractive surgeons and general ophthalmologists alike and describes the biomechanical role of the corneal tissue and how each part is affected in refractive surgery. Additionally, showing what the bioinstrumentation can measure, how models can improve understanding of the interaction between biomechanics, bioinstrumentation, and refractive surgery, and how these models and bioinstrumentation together can improve the refractive results, are also discussed.

Designed for use in routine medical screening, this concise manual provides a simple and effective tool for detecting color vision deficiencies in any population. It features 32 color plates that use the principles of pseudoisochromasia (distinguishing numbers and letters on a color background) and pseudoanisochromasia (detecting characters of differing brightness on a color background) to assess and classify a wide range of disorders. The authors also provide practical information on administering the test and interpreting results, making the book essential for diagnosing color vision deficiency. Special Features: Offers detailed instructions on using the plates to achieve the most accurate color vision assessment Supplies information on the physiology, pathology, epidemiology, and genetics of color blindness and associated disorders Includes plates for blue-yellow as well as for the more common red-green deficiencies Includes cut-out E shape for testing children and individuals who have difficulty reading or are unfamiliar with the Latin alphabet For all ophthalmologists, optometrists, internists, technicians, and other specialists who need to evaluate an individual’s color vision for medical or occupational reasons, Plates for Color Vision Testing is an essential practice aid.
