The standard work for ophthalmology in veterinary practise now completely revised and extended. This book provides especially general veterinary practitioners and students with a concrete guide to diagnosis and therapy of all important eye diseases in small animals.
"To conclude, I highly recommand this book which gives in a minimum of words, the maximum of updated information to the practitioner and the student. No topic is forgotten. One of the main qualities of this manual is to make things very clear for everybody."
The European Journal of Companion Animal Practice (UK - April 2001)
"I like this book. In a world of both computer screens and text, a comfortable textbook that feels nice and looks good demonstrates that this method of spreading information remains a viable option."

"Most of the veterinary ophthalmologic books can be divided into two categories:. The second category is atlases, which is full of illustrations but poor in written descriptions and their treatment. there are very few books, which reach the right balance between the number of illustrations and the written text. This book is no doubt one of the few qualified to be included in this small circle."
