Synopsis

A comprehensive reference on congenital eye disorders and general pathology, with clear explanations of development and eye circulation.

This volume surveys the causes and development of eye abnormalities, from how arrested growth can shape the eye to how intra-uterine factors may influence formation. It combines theoretical discussion with detailed descriptions of structures, including the retina, iris, lens, and the vascular system that nourishes the eye.

  • Learn how congenital abnormalities are classified, and the debated roles of development arrest versus inflammatory processes.
  • Explore conditions such as microphthalmia, aniridia, coloboma, and related anterior segment anomalies, along with patterns of retinal and vascular development.
  • Understand the eye’s circulation, including the retina, choroid, and uveal tract, and how these systems vary across species.
  • See how pathology informs clinical topics like congenital cataracts, persistent hyaloid structures, and other malformations.
Ideal for students and professionals needing a solid, reference-level overview of ocular pathology and congenital eye diseases.
