1st ed. 2019 Edition
by Hua Yan (Editor)
This book aimed to provide the
most thorough knowledge of ocular anatomy related to trauma and standard
ocular examinations to clinical practitioners, such as the nurses,
medical students, residents, fellows and even ophthalmologists, to help
them making the most appropriate decision on the management of patients
who have suffered from such ocular conditions. A thorough understanding
of the anatomy of the eyeball and the traumatic characteristics of each
structure of the eyeball are a prerequisite for proper interpretation of
long-term outcomes of mechanical eye injuries.
The first part
provides the audiences general information of ocular anatomy, which will
help them understand the basic anatomic knowledge and generate a
clinical thinking. The following part provides the detailed
examinations. They will help readers to make the right diagnose and
offer the best advice or treatment to the patients. For each chapter,
detailed clinical workup, clinical presentations and signs, and pictures
or illustrative figures will be provided. Part 3 will benefit more
medical coworkers to be familiar with the registration system of ocular
trauma and its social and medical meaning. This will also help the
advances of epidemiology and proper treatment approaches for ocular
trauma. Hopefully this book may help the clinical practitioners to be
fully prepared for any challenge of ocular traumatic cases.
