Unique in its focus on the patient rather than the technology, this handbook is a practical, accessible guide to LASIK surgery. Expert surgeons detail each step of patient evaluation, surgical planning, procedure, and management of complications, discuss the pros and cons of commonly used equipment, and demonstrate the nuances of technique. Emphasis throughout is on correct decision-making, preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively. The book features 75 actual cases with expert discussion of effective strategies for each case. Indexes help readers quickly locate cases by symptom/finding or by equipment used. Over 70 full-color clinical photographs and other illustrations complement the text.

Ophthalmology has long been considered a surgical area because so many disorders/diseases are treated surgically rather than medically. In the past ten years, however, there have been considerable therapeutic breakthroughs in non-surgical treatments. For instance, anti-glaucoma agents have becoming increasingly effective. This edition will include a new chapter for retinal disease. There are now several pharmaceutical agents being used to treat these diseases. Specifically, age-related macular degeneration has many new products – macugen, lucentis, etc. – and intraocular infections are primarily treated with intravitreal medications. Additionally, the anti-allergy and dry eye markets have grown tremendously in the last 2-3 years (endura, restasis, xibrom, etc).
