DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis text is part of the Color Atlas and Synopsis of Clinical Ophthalmology which was developed at Philadelphia’s famed Wills Eye Institute. The beauty of this series is the powerful combination of illustrative photographs and a summary approach to the text. While the seven ophthalmic subspecialties in this series, Cornea, Retina, Glaucoma, Oculoplastics, Neuroophthalmology, Pediatrics, and Uveiti, employ varying levels of visual recognition, a relatively standard format for the text is used for all volumes.

This book is intended to provide comprehensive ophthalmologists, ophthalmology residents, and retina and cornea fellows with a single-volume, easily accessible resource covering all the major aspects of ocular inflammatory disease.
