Chapters cover all aspects of ocular lymphomas, including clinical features, classification, epidemiology, diagnostic evaluation, biopsy techniques, histology and molecular pathology, staging procedures, and treatment methods. The emphasis throughout is on easy readability, and the layout ensures rapid retrieval of information. The book offers a clear distinction of what has been updated in the years since the first edition published, including entirely rewritten or revamped chapters. In order to convey fundamental concepts, numerous tables, clinical photographs, histopathologic microphotographs, and imaging studies (fluorescein and indocyanine angiograms, ultrasonograms, CT scans, and MR images) are included.

Ocular and Adnexal Lymphoma strives to cover new developments and innovations in ocular and adnexal lymphoma, providing the clinician with a review and summary of recent research and its implications for clinical practice and explaining how research results impact diagnostics, treatment options and procedures as well as patient management.

Vishal R Raval, MD completed his primary medical education from Nashik District Maratha Vidya Prasarak Samaj's Medical College, Nasik and his DNB in Ophthalmology from K J Somaiya Medical College, Mumbai.

He later did his International Ophthalmic Research Fellowship in Ocular Oncology at Cole Eye Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, USA, under Dr Arun Singh, as his mentor.

He has published widely in the peer-reviewed journals and presented at various conferences. His areas of clinical interest are in the field of vitreoretinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and ocular oncology including management of intraocular tumors such as retinoblastoma, choroidal melanoma & various other retinal & choroidal tumors.In the research front, he is keen on translational animal research in the field of ocular oncology, particularly retinoblastoma.

Prithvi Mruthyunjaya, MD, MHS  is Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at Stanford Univeristy, member of the Vitreoretinal Surgery Service and is the new Director of Ocular Oncology at the Byers Eye Institute. He is a board certified ophthalmologist who has completed two prestigious fellowships: the first in Vitreoretinal Surgery at Duke University and the second in Ocular Oncology at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, England.

He also manages the eye related side effects of chemotherapy treatments. He is an expert in using the most advanced diagnostic tests to make a personalized treatment plan for every patient. With his expertise in retinal surgery, he treats patients with a variety of advanced techniques including small instrument tumor biopsy, vitrectomy, and radiation therapy. As a retinal surgeon, he manages complicated retinal diseases including retinal detachment, macular holes, epiretinal membranes, and diabetic eye disease.

Dr. Mruthyunjaya is actively involved in research in ocular cancer imaging, genetics, and new modalities of tumor biopsy. His passion lies in developing collaborative research networks and training the next generation of vitreoretinal surgeons. His academic contributions were recognized by the Heed, AOS-Knapp and Ronald G Michels foundations the American Society of Retina Specialists with a Senior Honor Award. He was recentlylisted as one of the worlds 150 most innovative retinal specialists.
