Recent Advances in Ophthalmology


Book Description

Recent Advances in Ophthalmology focuses on developments in ophthalmology, including therapy, keratotomy, phototoxicity, and retinopathy. The compilation first offers information on the therapy of herpes simplex, anterior segment surgery, and use of viscous and viscoelastic substances in ophthalmology. Topics include systemic antiviral agents and ocular disease; influence of new instruments and technology; criteria for the selection of viscous or viscoelastic material; and indications for the use of viscous substances. The text then ponders on radial keratotomy, intraocular lenses, and treatment of congenital cataracts. The publication takes a look at ocular phototoxicity and vitreous surgery, as well as proliferative diabetic retinopathy, posterior penetrating trauma, effects of non-ionizing radiation on biological systems, body temperature and light damage, and retinal photodamage. The text also touches on the management of diabetic retinopathy; treatment of malignant melanomas of the posterior uvea; and macular disease with serious retinal detachment. The compilation is highly recommended for ophthalmologists and readers interested in the developments in ophthalmology.

Macular Surgery


Book Description

Recent technological advances in the diagnosis of macular disorders have enhanced our understanding of these diseases. At the same time, advances in small-gauge vitrectomy instrumentation and techniques have improved the safety and efficiency of surgery, allowing macular conditions that would have otherwise resulted in blindness to be treated effectively, preserving patients’ sight. Macular surgery continues to evolve rapidly, thanks to exciting future technology trends. This book provides a detailed and up-to-date overview of the field. It begins with essential information on macular anatomy and pathophysiology, examination techniques, and surgical instrumentation. In turn, it discusses a broad range of disease processes, including macular holes, epiretinal membrane, vitreomacular traction and myopic maculopathy. The role and benefits of advanced vitrectomy techniques including submacular surgery, prosthetic vision, robotic surgery, and stem cell and gene therapy are addressed in detail. A review of perioperative care and potential complications rounds out the coverage.

Recent Advances in Ophthalmology - 10


Book Description

The tenth volume of Recent Advances in Ophthalmology contains some selected chapters on cornea, uvea, secondary glaucoma, lens, retina, oculoplastic surgery, and neuro-ophthalmic disorders. First time in the serial publication, three editorials—artificial cornea, diabetic retinopathy, and endophthalmitis are included to provide an over view of the problem to the reader. Recent advances in ophthalmology have considerably improved the quality of medical and surgical management of the patients with eye diseases. Besides editorial on artificial cornea, five articles are included on cornea. Sinha and coauthors have described corneal dystrophies in great detail covering prevalence, international classification, inheritance, histopathology, clinical features and treatment. Hopefully, the postgraduate students in ophthalmology and general ophthalmic practitioners will find the present volume helpful not only in the basic understanding of new developments in the subject but also in day-to-day clinical practice and care of the patients.
