520 _aAdequate blood supply to the eye is an important prerequisite for normal visual function. Over the past 40 years our knowledge of ocular blood flow regulation has improved significantly. This lavishly illustrated textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of ocular blood flow by: Evaluating the wide array of methods for measuring ocular blood flow Offering the reader an evidence-based summary on the physiological and pharmacological properties of ocular blood flow regulation Demonstrating the ocular blood flow abnormalities in different vascular diseases This reader-friendly and well-structured book will enhance the understanding of all who are interested in learning more about ocular blood flow in health and disease.
