Excerpt from Surgery of the Eye: A Hand-Book for Students and Practitioners
The aim of the authors of this book has been to produce a thoroughly practical work on the surgery of the eye, one that would be equally valuable to the student and to the practitioner interested in ophthalmology.
The following plan has been pursued throughout the book: First, before describing each group of operations, we have discussed the disease for the relief of which they are intended, and have given clear indications for the selection of the proper procedure in any given case. A detailed description of the steps of each operation then follows, with a list of all the instruments required. After this the complications, that may occur at the time of operation and later, are taken up together with the postoperative care of the patient.
We have included all operations in common use today and also others that in our personal experience have given good results. This experience comprises fifteen years of practical work in Budapest at the Royal Hungarian University Eye Clinic with Prof. W. von Schulek, Prof. E. von Grosz, and Prof. L. von Blaskovics; in Berlin with Prof. J. Hirschberg, and in New York at the New York Ophthalmic and Aural Institute with Drs. Herman Knapp and Arnold Knapp.
A special feature of the book is its wealth of illustrations, drawings, and photographs, all new and original. These have been used unsparingly wherever it seemed that illustrations would elucidate the text. The drawings were made by Dr. J. J. Peters, Jr., and the photographs by Mr. F. Boyette. In preparing the book many authorities were consulted, particularly Czennak, "Die Augenarztlichen Operationen;" Terrien, "Chirurgie de l'Oeil;" Blaskovics, "Szemoperalasok."
