External Disease and Cornea (Section 8) (Basic and Clinical Science Course (BCSC)) - Softcover

This work explores the basic and clinical concepts of corneal and external eye disease. Covered are ocular surface disorders and surgery of the ocular surface, infectious diseases, immune-mediated and neoplastic disorders, congenital anomalies of the cornea and sclera, and dystrophies and degenerations. Also discussed are toxic and traumatic injuries and corneal transplantation. For over 60 years, the BCSC has been the core curriculum in ophthalmology residency programs and a definitive source of up-to-date clinical knowledge for practitioners. Continually updated by a faculty of leading ophthalmologists in academia and practice, the BCSC draws on a solid foundation of scientific research and clinical experience.
