Publisher's Synopsis
A title in the "Medical Consultation" series. The format of this book derives from specific clinical problems in ophthalmology that consultants encounter on a day-to-day basis. Special attention is paid to intensive care unit referrals and medical referrals, specifically in the setting of limited available instrumentation. The issue of good communication in caring for patients is addressed, as are other issues important in communication between ophthalmologists and other physicians. The book seeks to enhance the non-ophthalmologist's awareness and understanding of ophthalmic problems that arise within medical and surgical disciplines.
