Packed with superb illustrations, 'Fast Facts: Glaucoma' is bursting with practical information on the disease, including: A concise overview of the glaucoma subtypes and their global prevalence A clear explanation of the pathophysiology alongside what the patient actually experiences The questions to ask when taking a history The key elements of a comprehensive eye examination How to minimize the impact of the disease on the patient and reduce risk factors The latest medical and surgical treatments Monitoring of the condition - including detail of follow-up examinations 'Fast Facts: Glaucoma' is a highly readable practical reference for all medical and eyecare practitioners, an aid for students and scientists involved in the study of eye disease and a sound overview for anyone interested in this challenging disease. What is Glaucoma? How can it be detected? How can it be treated? 'Fast Facts: Glaucoma' answers all of these questions.
