    • Uniquely blending the best features of a textbook, a dictionary and a practical handbook, Dictionary of Optometry and Visual Science will remain a cornerstone for all those providing eye care and for those providing eye care, engaged in visual science, or entering the optical industry.
    • Over 4,200 terms are included.
