Walsh and Hoyt's Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology

By Frank B. Walsh and Neil R. Miller

Thoroughly revised and updated for its Sixth Edition, this classic work is the most comprehensive reference on diagnosis and treatment of neuro-ophthalmologic diseases. This edition has two new editors--Valerie Biousse, MD and John B. Kerrison, MD--and has been streamlined from five volumes into three tightly edited volumes with a sharper focus on patient management. Coverage includes major updates on genetics of diseases, new diagnostic techniques, and the newest treatment options. This second volume covers tumors, the phacomatoses, and vascular disease. Volume 1 covers the visual sensory system, the autonomic nervous system, the ocular motor system, the eyelid, facial pain and headache, and nonorganic disease. Volume 3 covers degenerative, metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, and demyelinating diseases.

The Holy Bible of Neuro-Ophthalmology

This edition of Walsh and Hoyt's Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology should be in every medical school's library, and on every neurology and ophthalmology residency training program's bookshelves, since it is the definitive resource for neuro-ophthalmology, and is actually both readable and exhaustive at the same time.

Good Beginner Text

This book is a good beginner textbook for both Ophthalmology and Neurology residents. It leaves some questions to be answered for those interested in more detail. However, this is what the book is intended for. It is after all a companion book to the full series.
