Download or read book The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook written by Nathan Lighthizer and published by LWW. This book was released on 2021 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As clinicians we are healers and scientists. As scientists in this modern era, we are wedded to technology. One of these ophthalmic technologies that encompasses our practices is lasers. Ophthalmic lasers have an expansive and multi-functional role in ophthalmology and optometry. They can now be applied to almost every crucial ocular structure in an elegant and efficacious manner. At the same time, this diversification of ophthalmic lasers may make it difficult for practitioners, and especially those in training, to have ready access to all the technical knowledge regarding their practical clinical applications. This is why the idea of gathering such essential laser information for the practicing clinician was conceived. Although there have been previous references published regarding one or another specific laser technique, a more comprehensive source that covers all the fundamental ocular lasers with current clinical relevance has been lacking. We hope The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook will fill this void. The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook has been designed to provide concise, relevant clinical laser information arranged in a consistent easy-to-use format. Most of the chapters contain specific key indications, contraindications, pre-operative considerations and procedural points. Post-operative considerations are also thoroughly addressed. This part of the chapter should be of considerable value to those who are co-managing these laser patients. One of the most distinctive assets of this laser handbook are its contributors and section editors. All have significant clinical experience in either performing the laser procedures or co-managing laser patients. Laser treatment involves a dynamic process. This is why The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook is both a soft cover text and companion eBook. The eBook contains all of the material found in the soft cover text with an extensive collection of laser surgical videos. As a bonus, we have included several non-laser chapters including corneal cross-linking and intense pulsed light therapy. Although these techniques rely on devices that are not lasers by definition, electromagnetic radiation is used to therapeutically manipulate tissue and these topics seamlessly fit with the overall scheme of our book"--

Download or read book Lasers in Ophthalmic Surgery written by David B. Karlin and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1995 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ophthalmology was the first medical discipline to embrace lasers, starting with the treatment of retinal diseases in the 1960s. Unlike other disciplines where the trend is moving away from the use of the laser in surgery, in ophthalmology it is an accepted treatment option in all subspecialities: eyelids, cornea, iris, ciliary body, lens, retina, and retro-orbital structures. 60 per cent of all laser surgery is ophthalmic surgery. The text presents not only current uses but speculates as to future applications of lasers.
Download or read book Current Cataract Surgical Techniques written by Xiaogang Wang and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first clinical application of the phacoemulsification cataract surgical technique (often referred to as “phaco”) was introduced in 1967 by Dr. Charles Kelman. This innovation is a big step forward for cataract surgery. With the development of intraocular lens (IOL) design, more and more premium presbyopia- and astigmatism-correction IOLs are being used in clinics. This progress has greatly improved the visual quality of cataract patients. This book discusses the basic surgical skills required to perform this procedure, premium IOL surgical design, specific surgical plans for clinically challenging cases, and more. It provides readers with a comprehensive knowledge of the current state of the art of cataract surgery and surgical design.
