Samenvatting

**Selected for 2025 Doody’s Core Titles® with "Essential Purchase" designation in Optometry**

Written and designed to enhance your understanding of ocular function, structure, and anatomy, Adler's Physiology of the Eye is a classic, best-selling text that makes critical information easier to learn and retain. The fully revised 12th Edition continues the successful Adler’s approach that connects basic science and clinical aspects in a user-friendly, highly visual format—ideal for study, review, and exam preparation. It captures the latest molecular, genetic, and biochemical discoveries and offers you unparalleled knowledge and insight into the physiology of the eye and its structures.Covers the full structure and function of the eye and its related anatomy and makes the connection between physiology and clinical practiceIncludes major updates throughout, including new information on OCT/OCTA imaging, new drug delivery methods, ocular biomechanics, and evolving gene therapiesOrganizes content by function, rather than anatomy, to help you make a stronger connection between physiological principles and clinical practiceExplains the physiological principles that underlie visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular circulation, the extraocular muscles, and much moreFeatures approximately 1,000 illustrations throughout, including medical artwork; schematics, charts, and graphs; clinical photographs; and moreAn eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud
