The human retina is probably the most versatile and complex tissue. Disorders involving its many layers and those of tissues adjacent to it result in varying degrees of visual impairment. Diagnosing the pathologies was based on ones experience but with the advent of new technology remarkable progress has been made by ophthalmologists to help mankind improve their quality of life. Retinal imaging endeavours to familiarize the readers with various modalities of imaging to diagnose and treat retinal diseases. It discusses numerous techniques and procedures like ultrasound, biomicroscopy, fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography. The book is replete with digital images and illustrations to understand each and every topic on retinology. A wealth of full colour photographs provide vivid visual diagnostic guidance. 1.
