Atlas of Feline Ophthalmology

Successful management of eye disease relies on the veterinarian's ability to identify ocular features and distinguish pathologic changes. Atlas of Feline Ophthalmology, Second Edition is an invaluable diagnostic reference, providing high-quality color photographs for comparison with a presenting complaint. Presenting 394 photographs illustrating both normal and pathologic ocular conditions, this Second Edition offers a current, complete reference on ocular diseases, adding conditions recognized since publication of the first edition, a broader geographic scope, and many new images with improved quality.
 
Carefully designed for easy reference, the contents are divided into sections corresponding to specific anatomical structures of the eye. A useful appendix new to this edition groups figures by etiology, making it easy to find every image associated with a specific agent or disease. Atlas of Feline Ophthalmology, Second Edition is a useful tool aiding general practitioners in diagnosing eye disease in cats.

Key features * Provides a compendium of high-quality color images of the feline eye * Focuses on the identification of a global list of diseases, conditions, and injuries affecting the eye * Includes both normal and pathologic ocular conditions * Acts as a diagnostic tool, with therapeutic information omitted by design * Aids clinicians in using ocular examinations to diagnose systemic disease * Designed for easy reference, with the book divided into sections according to ocular anatomical structures and an appendix grouping figures by etiology

The Table of Contents is presented in outline form to make it as useful and informative as possible. The figures have been grouped into 12 main sections, each corresponding to a condition or specific area of the eye. The initial subheads identify the disease, condition, or injury. Subsequent subheads are used to define specific aspects of each figure. Some figures are referenced more than once because they depict more than one clinical sign or condition; thus the numbers of the figures do not always appear in sequential order.
