More than 400 clinical photographs, fluorescein angiograms, and CT, MRI, and ultrasound images help readers master this visually oriented specialty. This edition has over 100 new full-color illustrations. Focusing on common diseases, the book covers all specialty rotations, plus key areas such as embryology, anatomy, pediatrics, plastics, and lenses.

Summary: Probably the best Q&A book to prepare for boards/OKAPS
Comment: The questions in this book look very much like the questions in the BCSC series and the OKAPs, which are supposed to look like the boards. Do well on these questions and you should do well on your standardized exams in Ophthalmology. I was dissapointed that many fundus photos were presented in back and white, and not in color as the Chern review manual shows them, but if you can recognize the diseases by clinical presentation and a B&W photo, then you are sure to nail the diagnosis in clinic. I think that this is the most relevant Q&A book available, and it is also one of the most recently updated.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Riddled with typos and errors
Comment: The content of this book is an excellent sample of the material on the boards and the OKAPS. HOWEVER, look out for SEVERAL DOZEN critical typos and poorly constructed questions. Just some examples: Question 100 in the retina quiz: the answer is clearly B but the book has a typo as D. Question 38 in the neuro-op quiz: either answer B or C would be correct, since Eaton-Lambert syndrome is a presynaptic disorder that affects the axon terminal (and not only the synapse). Answer to question 68 in the neuro-op quiz: irrigating the "left ear" suddently becomes irrigating the "left eye". The list goes on and on. One is left with the distinct impression that the authors slapped this book together in a hurry. I hope they pay more attention in a future edition.

Summary: The Best Review Book for OKAPS
Comment: If you study the Ophthalmology Review Manual and work the questions in this book, you will do well on OKAPS. The questions in this book are superb. They really hit the highlights on very important topics. I would supplement the optics, and would supplement the pathology sections (as would be expected).
I recently bough the Mass Eye and Ear Review Manual and it is good too. It has more questions, but the questions are not as good overall. There is a lot more minutia in the Mass Eye and Ear question book. The Chern book you will get the most bang for your buck, hands down.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good Review Book
Comment: Overall a nice supplement for the boards - it seems to have enough variety and not come straight from the Chern review book. Pictures are decent - not all in color yet. Gives nice explanatations to answers.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Same as older edition
Comment: If you have the older edition, do not buy this update. It is the exact same, except for the cover.
