Preface
Based on the success of the publication of the first edition of Veterinary Ophthalmology in 1981, subsequent editions were released in 1991, 1999, 2007, and 2013. The continued expansion and more rapid development of veterinary ophthalmology worldwide resulted in the current fifth edition having 35 chapters, 64 authors, and a text of more than 2100 pages. This second edition of the color atlas presents diseases based on their clinical appearances, and provides introductory information to complement the photos to further understand the characteristics of each disease. The most common eye diseases are emphasized, but to be inclusive, the less frequent diseases (and species) have been added.
Ophthalmology is heavily based on direct clinical examination and diagnostics, and hence often photographed. This heavily pictorial text introduces the veterinary medical student and veterinary practitioner to clinical veterinary ophthalmology based on the clinical appearances of the diseases that one would encounter in small and large animal practice. When possible, multiple photographs of selected ophthalmic diseases are included to demonstrate the different stages of these diseases as presented to the clinician, and when medical and/or surgical therapies alter their appearance. In contrast to most color atlases, we have provide a comprehensive text describing each ophthalmic disease (history, clinical findings, diagnosis, recommended therapy, and prognosis) as well as many species, including dog, cat, horse, cattle, and exotic animals. As a result, this color atlas has the largest collection of clinical photographs currently available in a single book, and for many readers a reasonably complete ophthalmic reference for your veterinary medical library and clinic.
This second edition has added chapters and more than doubled the color clinical photographs from the first edition. The first two new chapters are divided into: clinical anatomy with emphasis on the gross morphology and ophthalmic structures the clinician encounters during his/her clinical examination, and ophthalmic diagnostics most useful in general practice. ). Appendix 1 is a glossary or condensed selection of ophthalmic words, to assist the reader with sometimes confusing nomenclature (derived from the Greek rather than Latin).
