The Eye in Systemic Disease
A concise overview for general physicians of the relationships between the eye and medicine, covering the ophthalmic consequences of conditions originating in other parts of the body, including the endocrine, circulatory, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal systems, and an extensive chapter on neuro-ophthalmological disorders. Infections, malignant diseases, and the effects of systemic drugs are also discussed. Color photographs illustrate the conditions discussed, while color drawings explain the underlying pathophysiology. The first edition was published in 1986.
