DESCRIPTION:
I think this book would be an absolutely excellent addition for reference purposes to ophthalmic libraries and outpatient departments." . Clinical and Experimental Opthalmology, Volume 34 -- "This is an atlas-style book and, as suggested by the title, is very comprehensively illustrated in colour. The text is succinct, and integrates well with the photographs that are of a uniformly high quality

Readers can track the evolution of conditions from initial irritation and blemish through eruption to the secretion of pus. A glossary defines the many terms used by both the dermatologist and the ophthalmologist.. This atlas includes more than 900 color photographs that show common diseases at various stages, not just in their most dramatic form

Also, little discussion exists on tre. Good reference I heard Ivan Schuab MD lecture in Kansas City at the KCO&O and heard about this book. It is a good reference for common and uncommon eye-skin diseases. Identify uncommon diseases and may help treat insomnia.
