Each chapter contains a brief introduction and an outline of the
anatomy of the eye and orbit, and utilises an “answering
problems” format. Emphasis is placed on the efficacy of modern
treatments in ophthalmology and brief historical information is
provided where needed. Most chapters remain in the original
format of keeping a dialogue to maintain interest rather than a
purely didactic approach with bullet points. References are
deliberately kept to a minimum and the chapters end with a
concise summary to assist the reader with remembering the key
points for each topic.
