Synopsis
Excerpt from Elementary Ophthalmic Optics: Including Ophthalmoscopy Retinoscopy
This book is intended to supply the student of ophthalmology with all the Optics which is necessary for an intelligent knowledge of his subject. The proofs are in some cases a little confusing at first reading, but they never demand more than a very elementary acquaintance with mathematics. Even where a trigonometrical nomenclature has been in evitable the meaning of the signs is usually self evident. Special care has been taken to emphasise all important propositions by italics, so that those who do not care. To grapple with the proofs are provided with a readily accessible synopsis of results. A short bibliography of the best books upon the subject has been added, so that the advanced student may know where to look for further information.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an in-depth description of the principles of elementary optics, especially as they pertain to ophthalmology. A specialized field of medicine dedicated to the study of the eye, ophthalmology unites scientific and medical principles to understand, diagnose, and treat disorders of the eye. This book aims to provide students with the foundational knowledge necessary to enter this field. The author begins with foundational concepts, such as light and its properties, before delving into more advanced topics like reflection, refraction, and the behavior of light as it passes through various types of lenses. The book is notable for its in-depth exploration of the human eye as an optical system. It demonstrates how the eye is able to focus light by changing the shape of the lens, and how the cornea and lens work together to form images on the retina. The book concludes with a discussion of the latest advances in ophthalmic technology, such as the use of lasers in eye surgery and the development of new types of intraocular lenses. This book is the ideal starting point for anyone looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of the optical principles that underpin ophthalmology, and serves as an essential resource for students and practitioners alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332123728_0
