Product Description

Uveitis and immune-mediated disorders encompass a wide spectrum of potentially blinding diseases that are seen in daily practice by many ophthalmologists. In recent years enormous progress has been made in understanding the principal mechanisms of inflammatory and immunological processes in ocular disorders. The purpose of this second Uveitis volume of the Essentials in Ophthalmology series is to provide the ophthalmologist with the most current understanding of the pathogenesis of the most frequent immune-mediated disorders of the eye and a practical approach to these diseases.

Uveitis and Immunological Disorders

Fills the gap between textbooks and original research publications

Focuses on clinical aspects of inflammatory eye diseases

Covers a broad spectrum, including diseases affecting the conjunctiva, sclera and cornea, as well as intraocular inflammation

Includes basic research aspects, such as immune mechanisms and genetics

Is quick and easy to read with highly structured core messages and summaries for the clinician

Covers different topics than the first volume.

This publication will serve not only as a valuable source of up-to-date information for ophthalmologists but will also be of interest to pediatricians, specialists in internal medicine and dermatologists confronted with inflammatory eye diseases.
