Through eight outstanding editions, Kanski's Clinical Ophthalmology
has been the classic specialty textbook, providing the perfect
ophthalmology foundation for trainees and a valuable reference source
for experienced practitioners. Building on the previous edition by Dr.
Brad Bowling, Dr. John Salmon from Oxford University has comprehensively
revised the textbook. The 9th Edition retains Dr. Kanski's highly
effective format of succinct text and visually dynamic presentation,
providing authoritative, focused guidance on the diagnosis and
management of ophthalmic disorders. Extremely well organized and
comprehensive in scope, this visually stunning book reflects the
latest advances in the field, facilitating quick comprehension to
enhance learning, aid exam preparation and guide clinical practice. As a
