About the Book
Research institutions and hospitals in 6 different provinces of China have contributed to this theme issue describing the state of the art research on ocular fundus disease, cornea disease, cataract, strabismus and amblyopia, orbital disease and plastics, optometry, as well as visual physiology and immunology. Due to differing economic conditions the range of eye diseases and their prevalence rates vary slightly among the geographical regions. However, in general it can be observed that the emphasis of ophthalmic development shifts from treating to preventing blindness and from clinical services and techniques to basic investigation and clinical research. This special issue is essential to Chinese ophthalmologists, students and residents who want to learn more about the current domestic research or strive towards international communication. Also ophthalmologists, researchers, medical societies and organizations all over the world tending to improve their knowledge on the state of the art of ophthalmic clinical practice and research in China will find this publication informative reading.
