Editorial Reviews
Review
Review of the previous edition:
“As technology changes quickly in the field of optometry, this updated edition is warranted. While comparable to other books in the field, this one stands out due to its strong online library of photos and videos. This is a useful resource that is a must-have for any student studying optometry. It is also a helpful reference for practitioners wanting a good and practical review.” -Kara Tison, OD (University of Louisville School of Medicine) Doody’s Review Score: 91-4 Stars!
