Small Animal Ophthalmic Atlas and Guide is designed to offer a quick reference to common ocular conditions in dogs and cats. It presents high-quality colour photographs to facilitate diagnosis and offers details on each condition to support clinicians in clinical decision-making. The Second Edition includes significantly more images than the previous edition, with updates to include more representative examples where possible.

In Small Animal Ophthalmic Atlas and Guide, the image section is organised by area of the eye, making it easy to find and compare images for diagnosis. The disease section is carefully targeted to the most crucial details for developing a management plan. A companion website provides video clips.

Written by a veterinary ophthalmologist working at a busy urban centre, Small Animal Ophthalmic Atlas and Guide includes information on:

  • Orbital disease, including inflammatory and neoplastic disease
  • Eyelid and adnexal disease, such as abnormal hairs (distichiae, ectopic ciliae, and trichiasis), conformational abnormalities (entropion, ectropion, etc.), and third eyelid abnormalities such as gland prolapse
  • Corneal and conjunctival disease, including tear film disorders, causes of keratoconjunctivitis, corneal ulceration, and feline surface ocular disease
  • Anterior uveal conditions, covering uveal cysts, anterior uveitis, and anterior uveal neoplasia
  • Lenticular disease, such as cataract and lens instability
  • The posterior segment, covering normal fundic appearance, chorioretinitis, retinal degeneration, and retinal detachment
  • Recognition and management of glaucoma

With its broad coverage of essential topics and accessible images that help with accurate and fast diagnoses, Small Animal Ophthalmic Atlas and Guide is an essential reference for small animal general practitioners, students, residents, and interns. It can also be used as a reference to show examples to clients.
