Download or read book Uveitis written by Nicholas P Jones and published by JP Medical Ltd. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uveitis is a complex condition with a variety of causes and clinical manifestations. Certain types are extremely serious and can cause severe ocular morbidity if undetected and untreated. Even experienced ophthalmologists find it a difficult and frustrating condition, with the result that it is often misdiagnosed and mistreated. The wide array of diseases that can affect the uveal tract and the impact of immunological research – with resulting discovery of new uveitis entities – mean that clinicians managing patients with uveitis require a broad knowledge not only of relevant ophthalmology, but also immunology and general medicine. This book is designed to provide trainee and practising ophthalmologists with a user-friendly, up-to-date review of today’s body of knowledge about this difficult condition, and a practical guide to its diagnosis and management. From the foreword to the first edition, written by Jack Kanski: “(This book) presents a complex subject in a logical, systematic and easily digestible manner. I have learned much from reading it myself and some of my rather hazy ideas on the subject have been crystallised. Above all, the book contains lots of common sense. It is an excellent resumé of current knowledge which, I am sure, will be extremely useful to consultants, ophthalmologists in training, physicians, and all who deal with uveitis.” Key Points Extensively revised and updated to include latest management protocols and references High proportion of clinical photographs new to this edition, drawn from author’s personal collection and reproduced to highest quality Uveitis 2/e reflects unique experience of the author Nicholas Jones, a superb, world renowned clinician and inspiring teacher who created the Uveitis Clinic at the REH in Manchester, serving the Northwest of England and treating thousands of patients.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a garden is to a gardener, so a book is to its author. Nurtured out of love, both are a source of pride and hope. Microbiology, immunol ogy, infectious diseases, rheumatology, and ophthalmology are the seeds of this textbook on uveitis. Over the years, these branches of medicine have been cultivated and garnered to care for patients with inflammatory diseases of the eye, a most hardy species in the family of ocular maladies. The aim of this clinical manual is to give both a serviceable frame work and practical information on ocular inflammatory disease. The first section is devoted to general principles and commonly held sup positions in the field of uveitis. A system of diagnosis, based on the differential, is also offered. Traumatic uveitis is addressed in the sec ond section. The third part examines infectious diseases that have been identified with uveitis. These are frequently curable forms of ocular inflammation caused by replicating foreign antigens. The fourth section of this textbook considers inflammatory diseases of the eye with a presumed autoimmune mechanism. A disobedient, autoreactive immune response is postulated to playa role in these forms of uveitis. Masquerade and idiopathic conditions are dis cussed in the final chapters. Etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis are provided for each disease syndrome. As with most gardens, there are many styles and delightful entrances to the field of uveitis.

Download or read book Living With Uveitis written by Kevin Work and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-09-13 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uveitis is the inflammation of the uvea, the middle part of your eye. One of the most frustrating aspects of getting a diagnosis of uveitis (iritis, pars planitis, chorioretinitis, panuveitis) is realizing how little information is available about the disease. When you have finished reading this book, you will have comprehensive information about uveitis. You'll understand what causes it, what the symptoms are, and how it is treated. You'll also know what other diseases are linked to uveitis, and get some specific information about how you can modify your diet to help manage your symptoms. I was diagnosed with uveitis in 1994. That was in the days before the internet was widely used, and finding information about uveitis was challenging, if not impossible. After I was diagnosed, I decided to start the Iritis Organization, an online community that provides information and support to other people who have uveitis and iritis. The reason I decided to write this book was to take the information that is available on my website and bring it all together into a single, easy-to-read book.
