Oftalmologi

Ögonboken är en efterlängtad svensk bok i oftalmologi som beskriver hur man praktiskt handlägger patienter med skador eller sjukdomar i ögat. Boken består av de tre delarna anatomi, undersökningsteknik och symtom. Under varje symtom återfinns ett antal tänkbara sjukdomstillstånd eller skador. Utifrån typiska patientfall beskrivs aktuella undersökningar och åtgärder, differentialdiagnoser samt förslag på behandling och eventuell uppföljning.

Boken innehåller också en nationell kursplan (core curriculum) som omfattar kunskapsmål och färdighetsmål för medicinstudenter. Målen är graderade enligt SOLO-taxonomi och markeras med en särskild symbol i anslutning till aktuellt avsnitt.

Ögonboken vänder sig framför allt till medicinstudenter, men även till AT-läkare, allmänläkare, ögonsjuksköterskor, sjuksköterskor, distriktssköterskor och optiker.

Detta är en enkel introduktion till barnögonsjukdomar, och boken är tänkt att användas som en praktisk handbok för personal inom vården. Det finns många, mycket ovanliga sjukdomar och syndrom inom barnoftalmologin, och för mer information hänvisas till de referenser som finns i boken.I Sverige finns mycket kunskap om sällsynta barnögonsjukdomar på flera universitetssjukhus. I ett land med relativt liten befolkning är viktigt att ha tillgång till specialistkompetens där förhållandevis få personer har stor erfarenhet av sällsynta ofta behandlingsbara sjukdomar.

This selection of articles from the Encyclopedia of the Eye is the first single-volume overview presenting articles on the function, biology, physiology, and pathology of the structures of the ocular periphery, as well as the related disorders and their treatment. The peripheral structures are implicated in a number of important diseases, including optic neuritis, thyroid eye disease, and strabismus. The volume offers a basic science background of these topics rather than a strictly clinical focus.

The first single volume to integrate comparative studies into a comprehensive resource on the neuroscience of the ocular periphery Chapters are carefully selected from the Encyclopedia of the Eye by the world's leading vision researchers The best researchers in the field provide their conclusions in the context of the latest experimental results

As the first comprehensive reference for the eye, its support structures, diseases, and treatments, Encyclopedia of the Eye is an important resource for all visual scientists, ophthalmologists, and optometrists, as well as researchers in immunology, infectious disease, cell biology, neurobiology and related disciplines. This four-volume reference is unique in its coverage of information on all tissues important for vision, including the retina, cornea and lens. It also covers the physiological and pathophysiologic processes that affect all eye tissues. This Encyclopedia is invaluable for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who are seeking an introduction to an area of eye research. Each chapter explains the basic concepts and provides references to relevant chapters within the Encyclopedia and more detailed articles across the wider research literature. The Encyclopedia is also particularly useful for visual scientists and practitioners who are researching a new area, seeking deeper understanding of important research articles in fields adjacent to their own, or reviewing a grant outside their immediate area of expertise.

This selection of articles from the Encyclopedia of the Eye covering retina, optics/optic nerve and comparative topics constitutes the first reference for scientists, post docs, and graduate students with an interest beyond standard textbook materials. It covers the full spectrum of research on the retina - from the basic biochemistry of how nerve cells are created to information on neurotransmitters, comparisons of the structure and neuroscience of peripheral vision systems in different species, and all the way through to injury repair and other clinical applications.
