<p>From the reviews: <p><p> This book offers a valuable beginners guide to teleophthalmology. Each chapter begins with a useful summary that is then expanded upon in the main text. Illustrations, graphs, and tables also add to the text, as do a number of appendices. It is easy to read as it seems to be aimed at a reader who is new to teleophthalmic principles and care. I think it is a useful resource into the developing world of teleophthalmology. (Olga Brochner, Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2007)<p> This book provides an excellent and detailed introduction to ocular telemedicine and telehealth. Teleophthalmoogy provides a brief overview and strong introduction. The book will be of interest for those who are curious about what teleophthalmology involves and for those who want a brief presentation of the state of the art. (Jerry D. Cavallerano and Lloyd Paul Aiello, Graefe 's Archive for Clinical and Experimantal Ophthalmology, Vol. 247, 2009)
