This is the first official textbook on ocular anatomy for opticianry students that has been approved by the National Federation of Opticianry Schools. This comprehensive, yet easy-to-follow introductory text includes segments on anatomy and physiology, and the disorders that affect various parts of the eye. A basic anatomical overview is followed by more specific descriptions of each area of the eye, such as the cornea, the retina, and the conjunctiva. Special topics include ocular injuries and their prevention, age-related ocular problems, and instruments used for the evaluation of ocular status. This text will provide students with the anatomical framework that will enable them to understand the topics covered later on in their clinical courses.
