"...an excellent resource for ophthalmic registrars and experienced ophthalmologists alike.... A reference list is also provided for each case, which is a great resource and the cherry on the top for a budding retinal enthusiast such as me! The textbook utilises multiple imaging techniques such as optical coherence tomography angiography, fundus fluorescein angiography and fundus autofluorescence. It is an excellent illustration of how to approach retinal presentations and guides the reader through engaging examples.... There is also a corresponding e-book, which can easily be accessed through a mobile device,... [and] the images in the e-book adapt well, with many colour photos appearing brighter and more detailed.... The format delivers on the authors’ objective of recreating a conference-like retinal case resource, which is incredibly engaging and functions as an adjunct to support clinical reasoning." — Dr. Dineo Mpe (research fellow at Auckland University and Eye Institute), New Zealand Optics, February 2025

“The didactic case-based teaching style utilised is highly effective and provides an outstanding resource for developing and refining clinical reasoning.” — Dr. Dineo Mpe (research fellow at Auckland University and Eye Institute), New Zealand Optics
