This convenient, portable handbook presents the most essential and clinically oriented material from the classic three-volume reference, Walsh & Hoyt's Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, Sixth Edition. The editors have condensed selected chapters on neuro-ophthalmic examination and diseases and reorganized them into a single-volume reference to make clinical neuro-ophthalmology more accessible to general ophthalmologists, neurologists, and residents. Five major sections cover the afferent visual system, the pupil, the efferent (ocular motor) system, the eyelid, and neuro-ophthalmologic manifestions of nonorganic disease. Much of the material--particularly on visual sensory and ocular motor disorders--has been significantly updated for this handbook.

Good Beginner Text:
This book is a good beginner textbook for both Ophthalmology and Neurology residents. It leaves some questions to be answered for those interested in more detail. However, this is what the book is intended for. It is after all a companion book to the full series.
Easily readable and well presented:
Pictures are good and the lucid explanations for the seemingly difficult aspects of the subject are striking points of this book
