老澳门六合彩图库 Ophthalmic Case Studies For Medical Students

This is a collection of case studies to help you get an insight on the typical history and initial examination of various ophthalmic disorders. The discussion, although brief, is intended to give you a simple overview of each disease. The questions at the end of each case are a good review for M3 Ophthalmology rotation final examination. Feel free to contact Judy Hoggatt, MD, with any questions regarding the cases.
