  This new edition of Ophthalmic Nursing incorporates the most up-to-date changes and developments within opthalmic nursing practice. Now that there is reduced time in which to assess patients pre-operatively, it is even more important to use the succinct assessment skills illustrated in this thoroughly revised text. Opthalmic nurses must not be isolated from the current issues in nursing in general: this second edition reflects progress not only within the ophthalmic setting but also in the context of nursing practice. Modern developments in ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment are represented to provide the nurse with a sound knowledge base from which to practice high quality care. Trauma is highlighted as a new key chapter, and nursing procedures are expanded to include contemporary skills needed for professional practice. This book will support the latest changes in ophthalmic nursing study and will be an essential source of reference in research, reflective practice and standard setting for students, graduates and practising nurses.
