This book is meant for bridging the gap between recent developments and their incorporation into clinical use. Written by global experts, the topics cover advances in diagnosis and treatment of distinct clinical varieties of uveitis. Additionally, the chapter on imaging describes the various imaging modalities that aid clinching the diagnosis with greater accuracy. Role of corticosteroids, their mechanism of action and various routes of drug delivery too have been discussed in detail. Optimal use of various immunomodulators, their role, dose, mechanism of action, side effects, and monitoring during patient follow-up have been elucidated in easy-to-understand tables. There are two chapters on complications in uveitis, one on glaucoma and other on choroidal neovascularization. A chapter on pediatric uveitis highlights the challenges and provides guidance to manage this special population.

Part of the new series Gems of Ophthalmology, this book provides the latest information in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and its progressive optic neuropathy that leads to complete blindness. The book begins with an introduction to diagnostic investigations such as gonioscopy, optic disk assessment, perimetry and ultrasound. The following chapters provide in depth discussion on different types of glaucoma and detail on appropriate treatment modalities including medical, laser and surgical procedures. Emphasis is placed on the role of imaging in glaucoma management, and special investigations such as ultrasound biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography, are also covered. This comprehensive text is further enhanced by clinical and surgical photographs. Other topics in the series include: Diseases of the Uvea, Cornea & Sclera, and Retina.

"This book provides the latest information on the clinical work-up, diagnosis and management of uveitis. Beginning with an overview of diagnostic procedures for uveal infections, each of the following sections is dedicated to a different disorder covering both common conditions and more complex, less common infections. Topics include intraocular tuberculosis, ocular syphilis, Lyme disease, ocular toxoplasmosis, white dot syndromes, Behcet's disease, and much more. The book concludes with discussion on recent advances in diagnosis and management of uveitis, biologicals in its treatment, advances in intravitreal therapeutics, and choroidal melanoma."--Provided by publisher.

Hardbound. The volume contains the papers from the 4th International Symposium on Uveitis (ISU)held in Yokohama, Japan. The spirited discussions showed how astounding the progress in the field of uveitis has been in the past several years. The ISU explored many aspects of the broad fields of uveitis and ocular immunology. Although there is no clarity in the mechanism and pathophysiology of uveitis, many research findings were reported by a number of disciplines ranging from clinical findings to molecular biology. This book contains scientific information that can be useful asa reference to those interested in uveitis and ocular immunology. Furthermore, it can be utilized as a solid foundation for future work in the field.
