With 51 chapters and more than 350 images, this book covers all the eye emergencies that generalist and specialist ophthalmologists can expect to come across in their day to day practices.

The emergent nature of these conditions doesnot always provide for a leeway to refer these patients to an orbit and oculoplastyspecialist, who are few and far between. By the time the patient reaches hisdestination, his vision maybe irrevocably lost. The legal implications of suchmismanagement can be significant too. This book is a quick and essential resource to manage and refer eye emergencies with confidence.
