Chemical Ocular Burns: New Understanding and Treatments
More than 25,000 chemical products have the potential to cause ocular burns. Because such burns can result in loss of sight or the need for corneal transplantation, they must be taken very seriously. This book is the first to be devoted entirely to chemical ocular burns. All aspects of the subject are covered, including history, epidemiology, chemical agents and reactions, histology, pathophysiology, clinical signs, medical and surgical treatments, and emergency care.

Jack J. Kanski, one of ophthalmology's most respected authors, brings you "Signs in Ophthalmology: Causes and Differential Diagnosis" - a comprehensive compendium designed to help you quickly and accurately interpret a broad spectrum of ocular signs.
