Lee's Ophthalmic Histopathology
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-76524-8 (ISBN)
Completely revised and updated, this book now outlines changing patterns in eye trauma, corneal surgery and glaucoma; developments in molecular genetics in uveal melanoma; and diagnostic techniques for intraocular lymphoma. Information on new treatments for vascular disease in diabetic eye disease and wet age related macular degeneration is now included and the chapter on the orbit has many new additions. Recently identified causes of inflammation in the eye including drug reactions are described, as are the effects of topical therapies in basal cell carcinoma.
Well-illustrated and practically-oriented, this book has retained its general layout and style. The visual image remains key to explaining the pathological processes and this is facilitated by full color photography throughout the text. It helps both the pathologist and ophthalmologist understand the process that a specimen must go through prior to producing a report and how these various techniqueshelp to refine the diagnosis.
The fourth edition of Lee's Ophthalmic Histopathology is an invaluable reference source for ophthalmic pathologists, general pathologists and ophthalmologists.

During her training in pathology she undertook a period of research in ophthalmic pathology in Chicago following which she further trained in ophthalmic pathology in Glasgow with Professor Willliam Lee (the original author of the book). She has previous research interests in uveal and conjunctival melanoma and still undertakes research in toxoplasmosis (the subject of her research in Chicago). Her daily work involves reporting eye pathology specimens for the West of Scotland with a wider referral practice. She is also involved in teaching in the undergraduate medical and nursing curriculum and with trainee ophthalmologists and pathologists.
