Primary Eyecare in Systemic Disease

This clinically-oriented text provides comprehensive coverage of common systemic diseases and their occular manifestations. An appendix includes information on rarer disorders. Thoroughly illustrated with over 200 illustrations plus more than 80 in color. All clinical chapters will again present information in a consistent format including the disease definition, epidemiology, natural history, diagnosis, and treatment and management. Clinical pearls will be added to this edition, and there will be a greater use of tables and figures to emphasize material and add new information in a concise manner. There will be two to three new chapters, including one on Downs Syndrome and a separate chapter on alcohol and drug abuse. New material will be added on HIV/AIDS, carotid artery disease, laboratory testing, x-rays, and drug interactions.Thomann, Kelly H. is the author of 'Primary Eyecare in Systemic Disease', published 2001 under ISBN 9780838581766 and ISBN 0838581765.
