About This 7th Edition
Shields' Textbook of Glaucoma connects the anatomy and physiology of the eye with glaucomatous disease. The seventh edition supports study of mechanisms, examination and treatment principles, with attention to the distinctions among glaucoma types.
A focused study session can begin with the question being assessed, then separate the relevant observations from the interpretation of disease. Review the corresponding discussion and compare a related glaucoma topic to identify what further information is needed. This organization helps a teaching presentation explain the reasoning rather than only name an approach. Use the reference alongside the current standards taught in your course or specialty placement. Patient-specific assessment and treatment require current guidance, complete clinical information and qualified ophthalmic judgment.
