About this Book

This first edition is a compilation of 50 case and tutorial articles featured on our website, EyeRounds.org. These articles have the most online “hits” as of February 2018 and were hand-selected for their popularity and impact. They are among some of our most recent and high-yield content. Popularity will, of course, change over time and new cases and tutorials are added over time, so future editions will contain a different mixture of articles.
The content is arranged first by type (case or tutorial) and then subspecialty (Cornea and External Disease, Cataract, Glaucoma, Neuro-Ophthalmology, Oculoplastics, Pediatrics and Strabismus, Retina and Vitreous, and On-Call and Trauma.)

What is not in this book?

EyeRounds.org atlas images and videos, though very popular with our users, have been excluded from this compilation due to their nature. We invite you to explore the EyeRounds atlas at EyeRounds.org/atlas where you will find hundreds of pages of interesting and educational short items with images of interest. EyeRounds videos can be found at EyeRounds.org/video. Videos have been collected from a variety of sources created over the years by residents, faculty, and fellows of the University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences.
