Handbook of Visual Optics, Two-Volume Set

This comprehensive handbook offers a timely and up-to-date summary of visual optics, covering the fundamental principles, instrumentation, related methodologies, and clinical implications. Volume one gives an introduction to optical principles, ocular anatomy and physiology, and ophthalmic instruments, as well as a detailed treatment of the optics of the eye and retina. Volume two discusses instruments for imaging and visual testing, devices and techniques for visual correction, and the relationship between ocular optics and visual perception.

Handbook of Visual Optics offers an authoritative overview of encyclopedic knowledge in the field of physiological optics. It builds from fundamental concepts to the science and technology of instruments and practical procedures of vision correction, integrating expert knowledge from physics, medicine, biology, psychology, and engineering. The chapters comprehensively cover all aspects of modern study and practice, from optical principles and optics of the eye and retina to novel ophthalmic tools for imaging and visual testing, devices and techniques for visual correction, and the relationship between ocular optics and visual perception.
