This atlas provides a practical, well-structured and up-to-date guide to the spectrum of corneal disease, diagnostic modalities and relevant therapies. Throughout the atlas, high quality pictures covering each topic are included to utilize a hands-on format with less text and more visual examples. Concise knowledge of common corneal disease for everyday use is presented to ensure that the information can be quickly and easily applied.

The Atlas of Corneal Disease, Diagnostics and Therapies allows readers to readily compare a finding at the slit-lamp with the book's illustrations and come to a probable diagnosis for their patients. Students, residents, fellows and ophthalmologists in hospital settings and/or in private practice with a cornea subspecialty or training towards this area will find this atlas to be an indispensable resource in their daily clinical work.
