Sections on basic science, refraction, and pathology cover essential topics in ophthalmology for students of ophthalmology. Basic science chapters cover areas including genetics and embryology, the structure of the eye, various components of the eye, and the optic nerve. Chapters on refraction cover ophthalmic optics, thick lenses, the ametropias, astigmatic lenses, prisms, and bifocals, as well as magnification, aberrations of spherical lenses, contact lenses, assessment of vision, and physical optics. A single chapter on pathology looks at melanomas, lesions, infection, and glaucoma. Color and b&w photos, micro images, and illustrations are included. Smith is professor emeritus of ophthalmology and pathology at Washington University School of Medicine. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

This volume in the popular Requisites in Ophthalmology series concisely presents all of today's need-to-know information on ophthalmic anatomy and physiology, refraction, and pathology. It also explains the clinical applications of this foundational knowledge. No other reference encompasses all three of these important basic sciences in such a compact, clinically oriented, easy-to-read format.

  • Covers the pathology of each eye segment (including intraocular neoplasms) as well as developmental defects, ocular manifestations of systemic diseases, and their respective clinico-pathologic correlations
  • Explores the general anatomy of each eye segment and examines its corresponding physiology.
  • Describes the essentials of optics and refraction, and discusses the optics involved in popular eye procedures such as intraocular lens implants and corneal refractive surgery.
  • Uses abundant diagrams, black-and-white illustrations, color photos, and drawings to make every concept clear.
  • Features all the elements that have made previous Requisites in Ophthalmology volumes so popular-including summaries of major points, boxed information highlights, plentiful artwork, and a focus on the most necessary material.

Morton E. Smith is the most renowned ocular pathologist in the world. Most authors consider it a coup just to have Dr. Smith write a foreword to their book because of the power associated with his name alone. His current appointments are as follows: Professor of Ophthalmology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, Madison, Wisconsin; Chairman, Residency Review Committee for Ophthalmology; and Professor Emeritus of Ophthalmology and Associate Dean Emeritus, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis. Also, Dr. Smith serves on the Board of Directors for the American Board of Ophthalmology. Amonghis honors as a gifted educator are the six times he has been awarded Teacher/Professor of the Year as voted by his students at various institutions where he has held appointments.

Marilyn C. Kincaid was chosen by Morton Smith to write the Basic Science section based on her expertise as an instructor in the basic sciences in Ophthalmology. Her current dual appointments are at the Anheuser-Busch Eye Institute of St. Louis University School of Medicine as Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology and Pathology and at the Southern Illinois University Eye Center. She serves as a reviewer for the American Journal of Ophthalmology and Editor of the newsletter for the American Association of Ophthalmic Pathologists.

Constance E. West was alsochosen by Morton Smith based on her experience in teaching residents in Ophthalmology. She currently serves as the Director of the Electrophysiology Lab at the Childrens Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio and is on staff as a Pediatric Ophthalmologist at the Cincinnati Eye Institute. It should be noted that she was selected by her peers for the "Best Doctors in America" publication in 1996.
