| Taking
Care of Your Eyes
can help, when your eye doctor hasn't told you everything
you want to know. It's a collection of what many doctors
give their patients, to explain the eye conditions that
may be affecting you and your family. You will find out:
A
basic understanding of the disorder.
How the eye is examined.
What to expect, from examination through treatment.
Treatment options.
Complications that could arise.
Two eye specialists have written useful, practical information
about common as well as not-so-common eye diseases and disorders,
and what you can expect -- from examination through treatment,
and afterward.
The
more you learn about a condition -- one you suffer from
or are threatened by -- the better you'll be able to care
for yourself. You will be able to make more informed decisions,
communicate better with your doctor, be more responsive
to the signals your body sends you, make decisions more
confidently.
Each
topic is explained simply and accurately. This is a comprehensive
reference, to help you care for your eyes and protect your
vision.
