Age-Related Changes Of The Human Eye
Book (italiano):
The delicacy of the many structures and interrelationships of structures of the eye make it susceptible to destructive processes related to aging, and this collection of 22 comprehensive articles addresses nearly all the possibilities. Along with a review of preventative measures, contributors explain age-related changes and diseases of the eyelid, optics, cornea, lens, extracellular matrix of the trabecular meshwork, glial and mobile cells in the Iris, vitreous, retina, retinal pigmented epithelium, choroid, lachrymal gland, and oculomotor system. Several articles cover aspects of macular degeneration, and other contributions give personal experiences and rehabilitation of low vision in the aged. The result is an excellent professional reference that could also serve well in a geriatric ophthalmology course and as a refresher or study guide.
