Abstract

During the past two decades, our understanding of the molecular genetics of inherited eye diseases, their classification, and management has undergone a huge expansion as the field of human genetics has benefited from technological advances and increased interest by physicians and scientists in all fields. As a result, the amount of clinical and basic-science information on inherited systemic and eye diseases has become so large that general ophthalmologists, ophthalmic subspecialists, and physicians in other fields have found it difficult to keep up. This volume will act as a guide because it catalogues all the latest information about genetic diseases that involve the eye and presents it in a practical and accessible format. After an introductory chapter that reviews basic clinical and molecular-genetic principles, individual diseases and groups of diseases are listed alphabetically in order to make it as easy as possible to search for an entry. The material in each entry is a synthesis of numerous articles and reviews on the topic, accompanied by at least one high-quality illustration, at least one webpage of a patient support group or other organization related to the disease, and references that provide the original description of the disease, an excellent review, or useful illustrations. There is also a companion website containing electronic copies of all the illustrations to make it easy to use them in lectures. Health-care professionals who need immediate access to clinical and basic-science information on inherited systemic and eye diseases will find this volume indispensable.

Abstract

This highly anticipated new edition brings together an expert group of authors to provide a comprehensive, systematic sourcebook on genetic diseases of the eye. This richly illustrated, full color text covers areas such as: malformations; refractive errors, the cornea, glaucoma and cataracts; retina and the optic nerve; eye movement disorders, and systemic disease of the eye. The new edition remains grounded in a sound clinical approach to the patient with a genetic disease that affects the eye. Each chapter emphasizes the clinical aspects of disease, tying them to the underlying molecular mec

Abstract

"A day-to-day guide on the diagnosis and management of routine to complex retinal disorders The diagnosis and treatment of retinal eye disorders often presents significant clinical challenges. The Retina Illustrated by renowned retina specialist Justis Ehlers and an impressive group of worldwide contributors provides a rapid-fire, yet thorough approach to the visual world of retinal disease. Organized by ten sections and 102 succinct yet comprehensive chapters, this richly illustrated reference covers the full spectrum of retinal disorders, ranging from common degenerative diseases to emerging viral conditions. The book opens with discussion of state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, followed by nine disorder-specific sections describing diagnosis and treatment of degenerative, infectious, inflammatory, vascular, traumatic, viral, cancerous, and pharmacologic-related retina conditions. The text covers the full age continuum, from conditions primarily impacting older adults, such as age-related macular degeneration and choroidal atrophy, to pediatric disorders, such as retinopathy of prematurity. Key Features Discussion of cutting-edge imaging diagnostics, including ultra-widefield angiography, intraoperative optical coherence tomography, and OCT angiography More than 400 high-quality illustrations augment the text, enhancing understanding of retinal disease, from symptoms and signs to differential diagnosis and management A section dedicated to infectious and inflammatory disorders encompasses retinopathies associated with HIV, West Nile, Ebola, and Zika This is a must-have reference for all providers who encounter patients with retinal disease, including general ophthalmologists, retina specialists, emergency medicine physicians, and optometrists. Ophthalmology residents and fellows in training will also find this book an invaluable education tool"--
