Book excerpt: Covering the wide range of corneal diseases and disorders encountered and treated in an office setting, In-Office Corneal Procedures is a focused, practical guide designed for corneal fellows and specialists, comprehensive ophthalmologists, and optometrists. Twenty-three detailed, real-world cases, including both diagnostic and treatment guidance, are clearly presented and enhanced by high-quality illustrations and procedural videos. Contains 23 detailed case studies covering a full range of office-based procedures for managing corneal and ocular surface disorders, appropriate for both the comprehensive ophthalmologist as well as the cornea specialist. Includes general procedures such as removal of corneal foreign bodies based on type and location, indications and approaches to superficial keratectomy, and procedural approaches to dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction. Offers procedural guidelines on how to manage corneal refractive complications such as how to remove epithelial ingrowth from a LASIK flap, how to correct flap striae, and how to perform refractive corneal incisions. Covers complex and urgent cases such as impending corneal perforations, management of acute ocular surface burns, and how to best culture active corneal infections. Provides superb visual guidance with numerous clinical and surgical photos, OCT/OCTA and other diagnostic imaging, and 18 companion videos demonstrating procedures in real time.
