Book description
With the goal of simplifying the diagnosis and treatment process, Drs.
Zimmerman and Kooner introduce Clinical Pathways in Glaucoma. This new
decision-making guide offers 22 chapters on topics ranging from
childhood and neovascular glaucoma to drug-induced glaucoma and
management of glaucoma in pregnancy. Each chapter is consistently laid
out in the same organized format: Definition, Epidemiology and
Importance, Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis, Treatment and
Management, and Future Considerations. Beneath each heading, a series of
questions are posed, each followed by an answer and explanation, making
it easy to quickly pinpoint the information you are looking for.
Accompanied by step-by-step algorithms, cross-references, and dozens of
drawings, charts and tables, Clinical Pathways in Glaucoma is a complete
reference for specialists at all levels. This practical, clinically
oriented text is designed for everyday use by ophthalmologists, glaucoma
specialists, and residents. For easy- to-use, comprehensive information
on today's challenging cases, Clinical Pathways in Glaucoma is ideal.
