George Spaeth, Helen Danesh-Meyer, Ivan Goldberg, and Anselm Kampik, provides the detailed, full-color, step-by-step guidance you need to master essential ophthalmic surgery procedures. The international team of expert editors and contributors present coverage of the latest surgical developments and video demonstrations of key techniques across subspecialties, including cataract, cornea, refractive, glaucoma, oculoplastic, extra-ocular muscle, vitreoretinal, and ocular tumor procedures. What’s more, the fully searchable text, procedural videos, and a downloadable image gallery are all online at www.expertconsult.com, making this multimedia resource the ke...
In the early stages of keratoconus, visual acuity may be normal and slit-lamp examination is not able to identify the disease phenotype. Early diagnosis of keratoconus is of major importance for effective treatment. That is why corneal topography and tomography has become the gold standard examination for diagnosis of corneal ectasia. Corneal topography is a non-contact imaging tool that gives information about the anterior surface of the cornea. Corneal tomography evaluates both anterior and posterior corneal surfaces and is considered mandatory for preoperatory evaluation before refractive surgery. Until recently, Kmax was the main indicator for the progression of keratoconus, but recent studies showed that posterior elevation represents the first signal of an ectatic corneal disease. Cross-linking is considered the gold standard in the treatment of keratoconus and newer techniques allow this procedure to be selective on the areas of corneal thinning.
Current knowledge of the epidemiology, clinical expression, pathophysiology and available medical and surgical therapy for ocular surface diseases, providing an invaluable text for ocular surface specialists, general ophthalmologists, optometrists and residents.

The research on ocular pharmacology has increased significantly, over the past decade. More recently, the discovery and approval of eye disease modifying treatments is considered an unbelievable scientific breakthrough. Anti-VEGF molecules, cell therapy and gene therapy for age-related retinal degeneration, autologous corneal cells replacement, and Leber’s congenital amaurosis to name a few as some impressive examples. New drugs have been recently introduced for the treatment of glaucoma focusing on new pharmacological targets, such as Rho kinase inhibitors. For example, such novel treatments have been approved for optic neuromyelitis spectrum disorders. Regarding diseases of the front of ...
