Edited and written by internationally well-known experts, this state-of-the-art comprehensive overview of basic and clinical science enhances our understanding of retinal vascular disease. It will also help in the evaluation of current and future treatment approaches for the clinician in this highly relevant area, as vascular diseases of the retina are a major cause of blindness among all age groups. The well-structured and highly illustrated text is divided into three easy-to-follow sections. This unique textbook-atlas also includes topics which are not currently found in other retinal disease textbooks, such as case reports and clinical follow-ups. It offers step-by-step explanation of all treatment procedures and is richly illustrated with clinical images including illustrated single case follow-ups.
