- Summary:
- Wang (ophthalmology, U. of Tennessee) provides ophthalmologists, optometrists, and anterior segment surgeons with a guide to corneal topography in the context of wavefront technology. Written by ophthalmologists and optometrists from around the world, the 13 chapters cover basic topographic principles, including anatomy and optics and maps and scales; topographic techniques such as three-dimensional systems, Placido disk-based topographic systems, and combined topographers with whole eye aberrometers; and applications for topography in corneal diseases, contact lens fitting, pre-refractive surgery topographic evaluation, planning topography-guided custom ablations and keratorefractive treatments, corneal biomechanics, and the integration of systems for calculating intraocular lenses. This edition has been updated and reorganized to reflect changes in the technology. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
