Explore the anatomy and treatment of eye diseases with a trusted surgical classic.

This edition presents a clear, methodical account of the eye’s structure, its surrounding bones, and the tissues that form the coats of the eye, along with foundational descriptions of how diseases affect these parts.

The text delves into the eye’s three main coats—the sclera, choroid, and retina—and explains how they relate to vision and disease. It also covers the orbit’s anatomy, the lachrymal apparatus, and practical considerations for surgery, including how surgeons approach the lacrimal system and the use of instruments during procedures. The material is presented to support understanding of both anatomy and the surgical treatment of ocular conditions.
