Description

This text examines the vascular anatomy and physiology of the eye as well as the assessment of ocular circulation in health and disease. It offers a cutting-edge analysis of the eyes blood supply and how it is affected by conditions such as glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. 425 illustrations -- including 250 in full color -- detail anatomy, techniques, the results of imaging studies, and more.

I. Ocular vasculature, anatomical structure and function
1. Anatomy (different illustrations on anatomical structures in the orbit)
a. Description of vasculature (and anatomic variations) beginning from the heart to the ophthalmic vein
b. Innervation

2. Vascular physiology: Controls in general terms
a. Innervation
b. Autoregulation (e.g., intracular pressure)

d. Intraocular pressure and blood flow to these vessels
e. Different influencing factors (e.g. mediators of vessel dilation, vasoconstrictors) with diagrams showing affection of vessels

3. Pathophysiology
a. Loss of innervation (Horner syndrome
b. Ion channel dysfunction (theory)
