"The most complete description of the development, structure, function, pathophysiology, and treatment of the retina and its diseases to be found anywhere...A comprehensive and up-to-date reference on the structure, function, and pathophysiology of the retina and its diseases and their treatment. It is a necessary addition to the personal library of any retina specialist or trainee. It would be an invaluable addition to any ophthalmology department or medical school library. Stephen J.
