Basic Sciences in Ophthalmology
Basic Sciences in Ophthalmology aims to link clinical ophthalmology directly to its basic science roots. This first volume describes the physics and chemistry required for a sound understanding of modern ophthalmology. The book opens with an extensive discussion of the interaction of light with matter and the way in which light is used in ophthalmic examinations and treatments. After describing traditional methods of imaging, particular emphasis is placed on modern instrumentation such as OCT. The interaction between light and tissues in different types of laser treatment is also addressed. The chemistry section focuses on compounds particularly relevant to the eye, such as oxygen and water. The origin and consequences of oxidative stress are reviewed, and the physical behavior of chemical compounds in the eye is explained. Understanding is facilitated through the use of many examples taken from the field of ophthalmology. The text is complemented by about 450 figures.
Premetered Coating Methods
This book compares premetered methods to self-metered processes and addresses general properties of premetered methods. It presents specific properties of slot, slide, and curtain coating. The book is divided in three parts: Part I compares premetered methods to self-metered processes. It explains the term “premetered,” which is an expression of the law of mass conservation, and discusses the physical fluid properties that are relevant for premetered processes. Furthermore, it presents in detail the various basic flow fields that make up premetered coating methods. Lastly, it introduces the concepts of wall shear stress, residence time, and hydrodynamic assist to dynamic wetting. Part II...
Diagnostic Procedures in Ophthalmology
New edition presenting latest developments in ophthalmic diagnostic procedures. Fully revised and many new chapters. Previous edition published in 2009.
Diagnosis and Management of Glaucoma
Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the optic nerve is damaged and can permanently damage vision and lead to blindness if left untreated. This book is a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of glaucoma. Divided into five sections, it begins with an introduction to the disease, continuing step by step through its diagnosis, the different types of glaucoma and treatment options. Authored by specialists renowned in their field based in India and the USA, this manual contains 840 images and illustrations.
Perimetry Update 2002/2003
Perimetry Update 2002/03 contains a selection of paper presented at the 15th Visual Field Symposium of the International Perimetric Society (IPS) meeting held in Stratford upon Avon, England, from 26-30th June 2002. The meeting, titled 'Perimetry and Imaging in Shakespeare's Country', was hosted by Professor John Wild of Cardiff University.
Ocular Blood Flow and Glaucomatous Optic Neuropathy
It has been suspected since more than a century that disturbed ocular blood flow (OBF) may play a role in the pathogenesis of glaucoma. Reduced OBF has been measured in glaucoma patients by numberless centres with different techniques in different tissues of the eye. And reduced OBF has been proven to be of prognostic value. Nevertheless the implementation of this knowledge into clinical practice has been very slow. This practical book will help many ophthalmologists to better understand glaucoma. The reading of this book will not only improve patient care but also give the reader intellectual satisfaction.

Everything's Relative
The surprising truth behind many of the most cherished "facts" in science history Morse invented the telegraph, Bell the telephone, Edison the light bulb, and Marconi the radio . . . right? Well . . . the truth is slightly more complicated. The history of science and technology is riddled with apocrypha, inaccuracies, and falsehoods, and physicist Tony Rothman has taken it upon himself to throw a monkey wrench into the works. Combining a storyteller's gifts with a scientist's focus and hardheaded devotion to the facts-such as they may be-Rothman breaks down many of the most famous "just-so" stories of physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, and technology to give credit where credit is truly...
