Excerpt from Atlas of the External Diseases of the Eye: Including a Brief Treatise on the Pathology and Treatment
AT the request of the publisher I undertook the task of preparing the present atlas and accompanying treatise, although at the time I fully appreciated how difficult it is to give a faithful reproduction of the external diseases of the eye. But after seeing the work of Mr. J. Fink, of Munich, at my clinic last summer, I became convinced of his ability to accomplish anything within the range of the illustrator' s art.
With the exception of a few pictures which I already had in my collection, the illustrations were all painted from nature, the artist utilizing any suitable cases that happened to come to the clinic. We therefore had to depend largely on chance for a complete collection of suitable clinical pictures; but we were fortunate enough to obtain and commit to canvas the most important of such diseases as lend themselves to illustration.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book sets out a pathway to accurately diagnose external ocular disorders, a skill which is fundamental to diagnosing a broad range of conditions, some of which can have devastating consequences if left untreated. The author produced this volume to impart specialized knowledge concerning the examination of the eye, which cannot be accurately reproduced in color using current technologies. Working alongside an artist, the author painstakingly created a series of illustrations for this volume that capture the true visual nature of external ocular diseases. The book begins with a thorough guide to the external inspection of the eye, followed by an explanation of how to examine the surrounding structures, including the eyelids and tear ducts. The author then moves on to describe the techniques for identifying the symptoms of disorders affecting both the conjunctiva and the cornea. Finally, the book concludes with an overview of diseases and injuries to the sclera, iris, and lens and to the eye socket and surrounding structures. These diagnostic methods are explained with the utmost clarity and each is accompanied by a full-color illustration. The detailed descriptions help to ensure that, going forward, no treatable condition should fail to be recognized and treated in good time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
