Practical Medical Retina will be the third instalment in the 'practical' range to complement Practical Uveitis and Practical Emergency Ophthalmology books. Medical Retina is one of the largest and most important sub-specialties of ophthalmology. Many new and exciting treatments are happening at breakneck speed, making it difficult for ophthalmologists to keep up with developments and understand the best way to treat patients.

Practical Medical Retina will be the third instalment in the 'practical' range to complement Practical Uveitis and Practical Emergency Ophthalmology books. Medical Retina is one of the largest and most important sub-specialties of ophthalmology. Many new and exciting treatments are happening at breakneck speed, making it difficult for ophthalmologists to keep up with developments and understand the best way to treat patients. This book, as with the other two, will provide an easy-to-understand breakdown of developments, a description of current and future therapies, and an accessible assessment of evidence, of which there is currently a bewildering amount. Key Features: * Uses algorithms and flowcharts to help with decision-making processes. * Describes evidence and all relevant papers to understand connections to clinical scenarios for trainees and ophthalmologists. * Features multiple OCT images to better illustrate disease features in an easy-to-understand manner.
