Overview
With a general working knowledge of ophthalmic lasers, optometrists can better evaluate patients to determine when laser surgery may be most beneficial. The optometrist is involved in the post-operative care of the patient, with the ophthalmologist performing the actual surgery. Looking to the future when optometrists will be permitted to perform laser surgery themselves, this is an excellent guide for optometrists and optometry students on when and how to use the various ophthalmic lasers.

Reviews
REVIEW OF CURRENT EDITION: <br><br> This book is significantly inclusive and covers a very wide range of both diagnostic as well as therapeutic laser applications. The book is written in outline form and has the distinct feel of a well-written, continuing education handout. The clinical chapters are broad and varied. Chapter 3, Ophthalmic Diagnostic Uses of Lasers, could be quite helpful to clinicians interested in assessing the technologies that are currently being used in optic nerve and nerve fiber layer assessment. <br>- Optometry and Vision Science - 2003
