Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

This clinical manual provides a user-friendly guide to primary eye care. Jargon-free, it removes the mystery and anxiety that most primary eye care providers so often feel when confronted by patients with emergency eye problems. It includes step-by-step instructions on how to diagnose and treat common occuring eye complaints, background information and what to tell your patients, an easy-to-follow referral guide, illustrations to demonstrate every condition, illustrated treatment techniques, and a glossary briefly explaining ophthalmic terminology. Most commonly-occuring eye problems can be safely managed in the primary eye care setting, using simple techniques of history-taking and examination. This manual should give the practitioner, unfamiliar with ophthalmology, instructions allowing a diagnosis to be reached, treatment given and referral to be made when appropriate. The text should be useful to general pratitioners, accident and emergency departments, minor injuries units, optometrists, occupational health departments, first aid stations and all primary care providers routinely treating eye complaints.
