Normal Values in Vision Science
Description

This book represents the first authoritative and comprehensive reference dedicated to normal values in vision science and ophthalmology. It provides an up-to-date collection of normal values: measurements, volumes, rates, densities, velocities, amplitudes, frequencies, etc. Knowledge of normal values in ophthalmology is essential to identifying disease, especially as artificial intelligence and precision medicine play an increasingly important role in the future of healthcare.
Numbers and parameters are presented by tissue; i.e., cornea, iris, retina, choroid, and by function: micro-saccades, ocular tracking, luminance recognition, flow velocities. Comparative measures of ocular structures are also presented including pressures, weight (wet and dry), diameters, volumes, temperatures, and newer measures to ophthalmology such as stiffness of tissue.
This book relays to the reader key numbers and parameters relevant to existing therapeutic lasers, and imaging and testing devices typically found in both clinical and research settings. Closely related and important topics are included, such as Measurement Differences Between the Adult and Infant Eye, Applied Measurement Values in Ophthalmic Research by Sub-Specialty, Genetic & Ethnic Factors, and Normative Databases in Ophthalmology and Vision Science. Of particular interest to many will be the section Emerging Ocular Imaging Technology as new and ever-improving ophthalmic imaging technology continues to refine existing values, and define new values previously unknown to us.
Normal Values in Vision Science will be a valuable resource for Ophthalmology Residents, Fellows, Researchers, Research Personnel, Junior Faculty, Medical Students, Optometrists, Ophthalmic and Optometric allied health personnel, and Biomedical engineering students and faculty with interest in vision science as well as seasoned faculty.

Person
Michael P. Kelly served as Director of Duke University Eye Center's clinical and research imaging department from 2005 to 2023, and now holds the position of Director of Duke Remote Diagnostic Screening. He previously ran the clinical and research imaging programs at West Coast Retina Medical Group, California Pacific Medical Center, Cleveland Clinic's Cole Eye Institute, and the Cincinnati Eye Institute. Michael stewarded these departments through the imaging requirements of dozens of national clinical trials, including the anti-VEGF studies, the sustained-release and treat-and-extend trials, the collaborative ocular melanoma study (COMS), the cytomegalovirus retinitis trials, and the ETDRS, AREDS, AGIS, and CATT trials. He is a Fellow and two-term Past President of the Ophthalmic Photographers' Society (OPS), has served on the editorial boards for the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the OPS, has published forty-six peer-reviewed papers in seventeen different ophthalmology and biomedical optics journals, served as guest editor for a special issue on imaging intraocular tumors, and has written chapters in four textbooks. He has published works across four disciplines: ophthalmic imaging, biomedical optics, photography, and all subspecialties within ophthalmology. Michael has given over two hundred lectures and has been an invited speaker twice at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, twice at Ohio State University, six times at the University of California at Berkeley, the University of California at San Francisco, Brown University and the Cleveland Clinic. He has given talks for conferences at Harvard and Oxford, in Singapore, Chile, and the United Arab Emirates, and was the Keynote Speaker at Aalborg University's 2022 Oftalmologisk FotoSymposium in Denmark.

System requirements
File format: PDF
Copy protection: Watermark-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
System requirements:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Use the free software Adobe Reader, Adobe Digital Editions, or any other PDF viewer of your choice (see eBook Help).
- Tablet/Smartphone (Android; iOS): Install the free app Adobe Digital Editions or another reading app for eBooks, e.g., PocketBook (see eBook Help).

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
