Understanding macular degeneration : a patient's guide to treatment / David Boyer, Homayoun Tabandeh.
Drs. Boyer and Tabandeh, retina specialists in southern California, see many patients with this leading cause of vision loss in people over the age of 50. They discuss normal eye physiology; risk factors, signs, and symptoms of the dry and wet forms of macular degeneration; diagnosis; and the latest treatments and low-vision aids. The guide includes color illustrations, the Amsler grid self--screening tool, resources, and a glossary. The subtitle reads "From Diagnosis to Treatment" on the cover, but "A Patient's Guide to Treatment" on the title page. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
