The Sclera and Systemic Disorders
This book guides ophthalmologists through interpretation of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images, which are cross-sectional images captured through non-invasive, non-contact imaging technology. Begins with analysis of the subdivides of each image into its smallest components, followed by a combination of these fine details to allow diagnosis and identification of appropriate treatment; features detailed schematic illustrations as well as actual scans, and offers information on technical and clinical uses of OCT in study of glaucoma and 3D images. Full of high-quality images, this is a must-have for all practicing and training ophthalmologists and optometrists.
Eyes by Hand
A personal and intimate view of the craft of eye-making. This is a book about artificial eyes—about the artisans and artists who make them, and about the life-changing and sometimes life-saving experience of wearing them, as author Dan Roche has done for 15 years. Eye making is done by hand, for one person at a time, by a very small number of ocularists (fewer than 200 in the US); it is a slow, intricate, and unusually intimate process of molding, fitting, and painting that brings ocularist and patient together for many hours or even days. In Eyes by Hand, Roche describes the craft that goes into the making of an eye that looks uncannily real, as well as the psychological and emotional healing that such service brings to someone who has suffered the very visible trauma of eye loss—a loss that can go to the heart of self-identity. In an engaging, frankly fascinating fashion, Roche captures the intricacies of a profession whose techniques and culture have been remarkably consistent for 200 years. He explores, too, how that profession may now be facing a digital transformation in the form of scan-print-mail possibilities. Such a change might make prosthetic eyes more easily and cheaply available, though it may also risk the aesthetic qualities and intimate connection fundamental to the process of healing.
