It enables the reader to learn about the: Original method for examining newborns under general anaesthesia in the slit-lamp Signs and symptoms of the disease and the differential diagnosis Role and importance of the echometry value for early diagnosis Gonioscopy results and the three types of congenital glaucomas (pure, refractory and late) Type of surgery to be performed in each case, with the evaluation and case-studies by follow-up long-term results. Written by renowned international experts of the field, this book will become the gold standard in the field of pediatric and congenital glaucomas.
