Overall, "Kanski's Clinical Ophthalmology: A Systematic Approach" is a highly recommended resource for ophthalmologists, residents, and students seeking to deepen their understanding of ophthalmology.

Description:
  1. Through eight outstanding editions, Kanski's Clinical Ophthalmology has been the classic specialty textbook, providing the perfect ophthalmology foundation for trainees and a valuable reference source for experienced practitioners. Building on the previous edition by Dr. Brad Bowling, Dr. John Salmon from Oxford University has comprehensively revised the textbook. The 9th Edition retains Dr. Kanski's highly effective format of succinct text and visually dynamic presentation, providing authoritative, focused guidance on the diagnosis and management of ophthalmic disorders. Extremely well organized and comprehensive in scope, this visually stunning book reflects the latest advances in the field, facilitating quick comprehension to enhance learning, aid exam preparation, and guide clinical practice. As a general ophthalmic textbook, this is the gold standard.

    • Includes 2,800 illustrations, including more than 1,000 new images of common and rare conditions and arrows to show the exact pathology.
    • Features detailed updates on new therapeutic interventions for neurological disease and ocular tumours; new imaging techniques such as OCT,OCT angiography, and MRI;and new topics such as circadian rhythms , graft versus host disease and the effects of of Ebola virus infection on the eye.
    • Presents examination techniques in a new, separate chapter and contains new "tips" on key issues in every chapter.
    • Provides up-to-date information on hot topics such as intravitreal treatment with anti-VEGF agents for macular disease, genetic advances in hereditary retinal dystrophies,the use of biological agents in the treatment of uveitis and scleritis and new surgical advances such as MIGS for glaucona and limbal stem cell grafting.

Preface:

In presenting this new edition of Kanski’s Clinical Ophthalmology, I am reminded of a quotation from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “What is the use of a book”, thought Alice, “without pictures or conversations?”. The ninth edition of this classic textbook is filled with beautiful illustrations and considerable information and is intended to be a useful and comprehensive basis for general ophthalmic practice. It has been a privilege to work on this remarkable book and I am grateful to Jack Kanski and the staff of Elsevier for entrusting me with the task.

The challenge has been to cover the entire field of ophthalmology for a worldwide audience without depending on subspecialists to prepare each chapter. In order to do this, I have maintained Jack Kanski’s unique approach of presenting core clinical knowledge in a systemic and succinct form. Brad Bowling has had a significant influence on the two previous editions and his accuracy and meticulous attention to detail has been extremely helpful. I have reverted to the format that was used in the sixth edition by starting with an initial chapter on examination techniques. Special investigations remain in the chapters where they are most relevant.

Each chapter has been updated and the latest evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic approaches have been covered, including genetics,  immunotherapy and imaging techniques. Many new illustrations have been added and better examples of a range of conditions have been used. Jack Kanski’s idea of including important ‘tips’ has been reintroduced. I have included sufficient practical information for trainees to manage common ophthalmic conditions in the clinic and enough detail on rare conditions to enable them to prepare for their examinations without resorting to the Internet.

I have been extremely fortunate to have received help from colleagues past and present, to whom I wish to express my grateful thanks. The photographers and research staff at the Oxford Eye Hospital have been wonderfully supportive. Jack Kanski generously gave me his huge collection of images.

My friends in South Africa, Tony Murray (strabismus) and Trevor Carmichael (cornea) provided help with the text and images of pathology that are not easily found in developed countries. I received many pictures from Jonathan Norris and Elizabeth Insull (oculoplastics), Darius Hildebrand and Manoj Parulekar (pediatrics), Peter Issa and Christine Kiire (medical retina), Bertil Damato (ocular oncology), Martin Leyland (corneal surgery), C.K. Patel (vitreoretinal surgery), Patsy Terry (ultrasound) and Pieter Pretorius (neuroradiology). Mitch Ménage provided good pictures of common conditions. Aude Ambresin and Carl Herbort (Switzerland) supplied state-of-the-art retinal images. I have kept many

of the outstanding pictures that Chris Barry and Simon Cheng (Australia) provided for the eighth edition. Single examples of rare conditions have been kindly provided by a number of colleagues throughout the United Kingdom and elsewhere and their contribution has been recognized next to the images provided. Other individuals have helped substantially with previous editions of Clinical Ophthalmology, including Terry Tarrant, the artist who produced the meticulous ocular paintings. I also wish to thank Kim Benson, Sharon Nash, Kayla Wolfe, Julie Taylor, Anne Collett, and the production team at Elsevier.

The ninth edition of Kanski’s Clinical Ophthalmology could not have been produced in the time available without the help of my assistant, Carolyn Bouter, whose resilience, diligence, intelligence, and skill were evident throughout the 6 months that she worked with me. I have also had the good fortune to work with Jonathan

Brett is a world-class photographer, and artist, whose genius is present in hundreds of the images included in this edition. My wife, Susie, has been extremely supportive throughout this project and her happy and helpful nature has made the task a pleasant and enjoyable experience.
