Good Deal by Stephen D. Smith (Louisville KY) 5 Stars
October 30, 2009
An up to date version that is replacing an older version. Photos are a nice perk but the up to date treatment options are the reason I bought it.

Chris Gilmartin, OD by Christopher Gilmartin (San Diego, CA) 4 Stars
June 24, 2009
Great clinical reference for OD/MD students, residents, and fellows. Much more useful than the previous "blue" edition without photos. Can be somewhat helpful in preparing for the OD Steps II and III boards, but it's really designed for assisting in clinical decision-making, chairside or bedside. Highly recommended. Chris Gilmartin, OD

I purchased this guide for my initial ophthalmology rotation. This book is full of succinct, but quality information on a broad spectrum of eye diseases. Very easy to reference and find quick information. A must for anyone in medical school or residency.

Excellence in Eyecare 5 Stars
February 10, 2009
Wow! I was blown away by this book. The pictures are great and the summaries of each condition are even better. It's a fantastic book and a must-have for any eyecare professional. It is not even that expensive so it makes it totally worth it.
