There have been many changes in the arena of ophthalmic care since the last edition of this book was published.  This fourth edition of Ophthalmic Nursing has been fully updated and revised to reflect these recent advances in care, and incorporates new information on patient care, contexts of care, and expanded roles. It includes a greater emphasis in the Primary Care setting, more information on issues such as new treatments, infection control, use of technology, and greater detail on theatre, anaesthetics and recovery, and new information on the role of other health care professionals involved in ophthalmic care. Now with colour illustrations throughout, this accessible text also includes evidence-based procedure guidelines and reflective practice exercises that enable the reader to apply the learning in practice. Written by highly regarded authors based at The University of Manchester and Manchester Royal Eye Hospital, Ophthalmic Nursing is an essential ‘must-have’ for every eye department.Content: Chapter 1 The Ophthalmic Patient (pages 1–4): Chapter 2 The Ophthalmic Nurse (pages 5–20): Chapter 3 Ophthalmic Nursing Procedures (pages 21–60): Chapter 4 Emergency Ophthalmic Procedures (pages 61–77): Chapter 5 The Globe: A Brief Overview (pages 78–81): Chapter 6 The Protective Structures, Including Removal of an Eye (pages 82–107): Chapter 7 The Lacrimal System and Tear Film (pages 108–119): Chapter 8 The Conjunctiva and Sclera (pages 120–136): Chapter 9 The Cornea (pages 137–156): Chapter 10 The Uveal Tract (pages 157–172): Chapter 11 Glaucoma (pages 173–196): Chapter 12 The Crystalline Lens (pages 197–209): Chapter 13 The Retina, Optic Nerve and Vitreous Humour (pages 210–241): Chapter 14 The Extra?Ocular Muscles (pages 242–258): Chapter 15 Ophthalmic Trauma (pages 259–275): Chapter 16 Ocular Manifestations of Systemic Disease (pages 276–283): Chapter 17 Ophthalmic Drugs (pages 284–294):
