Oculoplastic Surgery

With the introduction of new surgical approaches, technologies, and biomaterials, the suspeciality of oculoplastic surgery has improved greatly since the first edition in 2002. The Second Edition of this successful book has been extensively revided and updated so that practicising opthalmic surgeons, surgeons in training and specialists in head and neck surgery will benefit. Brian Leatherbarrow’s pragmatic approach to the diagnosis and management of patients presenting with a broad range of oculoplastic, orbital and lacrimal problems. As expected, great emphasis is placed on the periocular anatomy, as well as the adjacent structures. The relevant applied anatomy for each procedure is described in detail. Within each chapter, pertinent clinical signs, investigations, surgical indications, important technical considerations and complications receive appropriate emphasis. Brian Leatherbarrow, Manchester Royal Eye Hospital Praise for the First Edition This is a wonderfully detailed book by an experienced oculoplastic and orbital surgeon. It is remarkabale as most mortal oculoplastic surgeons would have struggled to write such a book, but Brian Leatherbarrow has succeeded in concentrating his encyclopedic knowledge into a comprehsive tome. British Journal of Ophthalmology An excellent oculoplastic textbook with a well-covered overview of every aspect of opthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery. The good layout is complemented with clear illustrations and precise discussions. I will certainly treasure this...and will not hesitate to quote its excellent materials.
