Book Synopsis

Ophthalmic Nursing provides an overview for those setting out in a role within ophthalmic nursing. It includes essential anatomy and physiology â the foundations for understanding how the eye functions and why and how problems occur â and relates them to the care and needs of the patient.

This clearly presented text draws on the most up-to-date evidence-based guidelines and the inclusion of colour images, reflective questions and exercises throughout allows readers to apply their knowledge to the realities of the care setting. Beginning with chapters on practising as a nurse and the ophthalmic patient, the book goes onto outlines the basics of an eye examination before introducing eye health and ill-health in different parts of the eye, and covering issues such as glaucoma and trauma. It ends with a chapter focusing on ophthalmic drugs and includes two entirely new chapters on multi-professional ophthalmic-led clinics and vision rehabilitation.
