Glaucoma. Illustrated guide

Since the first edition of this book was released in 1998 and was well received by the public, the understanding of glaucoma pathophysiology has significantly deepened, ushering in a new era of glaucoma research - genetic, biochemical, and in the field of cell biology. Glaucoma is no longer considered a separate disease characterized by increased intraocular pressure causing damage to the optic nerve, but rather as a group of diseases with similar features. To prepare the second edition, Dr. Neil Choplin and Diana Landi invited a large team of experts, many of whom were the first to use new diagnostic and surgical techniques in clinical practice. The knowledge and experience of the authors who prepared the relevant chapters of the book will provide readers with the necessary information for successful and effective treatment of patients with glaucoma. This illustrated guide is essential for both students and practicing ophthalmologists who treat patients suspected of having glaucoma or with a confirmed diagnosis of glaucoma.
