With the rapid development of the field of ophthalmology over the last 10 years, from the development of ever more sophisticated ocular diagnostic technology, to the development of novel medical therapies, ophthalmologists have seen dramatic advancements in the care of their patients.

The book highlights various ophthalmic surgical techniques that have been devised, modified, and refined over the last decade, allowing ophthalmic surgeons to achieve surgical perfection. It includes illustrations, clinical photos, videos of surgical procedure. It includes easy to follow salient points in each chapter.

This volume of the Current Practices in Ophthalmology book series serves as a valuable resource for post graduate residents in ophthalmology, practicing ophthalmologists, subspecialty fellows, vision science researchers, and general ophthalmologists.
