Providing the ocular anatomy and physiology content needed for a thorough comprehension of this complex field, Clinical Anatomy and Physiology of the Visual System, 4th Edition, offers a solid foundation for recognizing and understanding specific clinical situations and how they relate to anatomic structure. This concise, well-referenced resource covers the clinical anatomy of the eye, its adnexa and visual pathways, and histologic information—the information you need for success in coursework, certification exams, and clinical practice.
    • Features vivid, full-color illustrations that help you visualize the clinical anatomy of the eye along with the cellular physiology behind diseases and disorders of the visual system.
    • Emphasizes clinical application throughout, helping you better understand the processes that occur in disease and dysfunction. Clinical Comment sections offer a unique focus on clinical situations, conditions, diseases, and treatments.
    • Contains new OCT, OCTA, MRI, and CT images that demonstrate clinical views of ocular anatomy. OCT technology is incorporated to describe the retinal layers, newly described anatomical components of the vitreous, corneal and anterior chamber angle anatomy, and the choroidal and retinal vasculature.
    • Covers current topics such as genes essential in eye development, scleral and choroidal changes occurring with myopia progression, limbal stem cells, age-related macular degeneration and VEGF therapies, and microinvasive glaucoma surgical procedures.
    • Includes updated concepts and terminology: Edinger Westfall preganglionic cells, sensory innervation to the cornea, knees of Wilbrand, intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, and more.
    • Provides expert coverage by a practicing optometrist, giving you a practical framework for recognizing and understanding clinical situations, problems, and treatments.
    • Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

    • Product Content
      • The primary content is text.
      • Content includes a significant number of actionable (clickable) web links to external content, downloadable resources, supplementary material, etc.
      • Content includes a significant number of actionable (clickable) cross-references, hyperlinked notes and annotations, or with other actionable links between largely textual elements (e.g., quiz/test questions, 'choose your own ending', etc.).
      • Content includes additional textual content such as an interview, feature article, essay, bibliography, quiz/test, other background material, or text that is not included in a primary or 'unenhanced' version.
      • Content includes photographs, whether in a plate section / insert or not.
      • Content includes figures, diagrams, charts and/or graphs, including other 'mechanical' (i.e. non-photographic) illustrations.
      • Content includes narrative animation, e.g., cartoon, animatic or CGI animation (usually includes sound).
      • Content includes images displayed in a specific order for the purpose of graphic storytelling or giving information (e.g. graphic novels, comics and manga). May include text integrated into the image (as speech and thought bubbles, textual 'sound' effects, captions etc.).
      • Product includes actionable (clickable) links to external interactive content.
    • Legal Considerations
      • No information is available
    • Additional Accessibility Information
      • Content is enhanced with ARIA roles to optimize organization and facilitate navigation
      • Page breaks included from the original print source
