Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ophthalmic epidemiology is the subject of international research: common ophthalmic conditions in industrialized countries receiving attention as well as the main blinding diseases of the developing nations. For those public health officials, health planners and ophthalmologists responsible for developing programmes aimed at the prevention of blindness, this book provides a one-stop source of relevant information derived from major epidemiological studies on prevalence, risk-factors and distribution of eye disease. Internationally applicable, the methodology used in developing countries will prove valuable in developed nations where economic growth and rising affluence have created similar conditions.

Download or read book The Epidemiology of Eye Disease 2ed written by Gordon J. Johnson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-05-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large proportion of the world's eye disease is preventable through better education, sanitation and medical therapy. A global initiative for the elimination of avoidable blindness is being given high prominence by WHO over the next ten years with many countries instigating their own prevention programmes. Interest in this topic is therefore at an all-time high. A timely revision of this established textbook, Epidemiology of Eye Disease provides practising ophthalmologists and public health officials, as well as students enrolled on an increasing number of related Masters Courses, with definitive information on both the epidemiology and prevention of eye disease. Thoroughly revised and updated throughout for the second edition, the content has been enlarged by the addition of new sections on clinical trials, molecular epidemiology and refractive errors. The revision also has a much-enhanced international flavor with many new contributing authors, and reflects the considerable experience gained by the editors through their respective associations with the highly regarded courses run at the Institute of Ophthalmology in London and at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. The second edition of Epidemiology of Eye Disease continues to be a one-stop source of relevant information derived from all major epidemiological studies on the prevalence, risk factors and distribution of eye disease, to be referred to frequently by students and practitioners in both developed and developing nations.

Book excerpt: This unique book is a comprehensive, in-depth coverage of the epidemiology of the world's major blinding eye diseases, written by internationally acclaimed experts in each field. Edited by internationally recognized epidemiologists and ophthalmologists, each chapter describes the biology, pathology, epidemiology, risk factors, and new research avenues for the leading causes of visual loss. New chapters include the epidemiology of Dry Eye and the economics of visual loss, as well as program issues for reaching the goal of eliminating avoidable blindness by 2020. This book is essential for any eye care practitioner interested in public health, and should be part of the library of any public health discipline with a focus on improving eye health worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this publication is to enhance mutual understanding and communication between ophthalmologists, molecular geneticists, genetic counselors and biomedical researchers. In the introductory chapter, current genetic paradigms and experimental genetic approaches relevant to the nature of hereditary disorders are discussed. The following contribution on the epidemiology of hereditary ocular disorders provides an excellent reference to geneticists as well as clinicians. Myopia is presented as an example of a complex clinical phenotype where genes and environment interact. Further molecular ophthalmogenetic topics, such as corneal dystrophies, cataract, glaucoma, opticus neuropathy, non-syndromic and syndromic pigmentary retinopathies, defects of vitamin A metabolism and macular dystrophies including age-related macular degeneration, are investigated in depth. The volume concludes with a survey of color vision deficiencies, a discussion of animal models and gene therapy, and a useful description of technical devices supporting patients who are losing sight.

This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to see deeply affects how human beings perceive and interpret the world around them. For most people, eyesight is part of everyday communication, social activities, educational and professional pursuits, the care of others, and the maintenance of personal health, independence, and mobility. Functioning eyes and vision system can reduce an adult's risk of chronic health conditions, death, falls and injuries, social isolation, depression, and other psychological problems. In children, properly maintained eye and vision health contributes to a child's social development, academic achievement, and better health across the lifespan. The public generally recognizes its reliance on sight and fears its loss, but emphasis on eye and vision health, in general, has not been integrated into daily life to the same extent as other health promotion activities, such as teeth brushing; hand washing; physical and mental exercise; and various injury prevention behaviors. A larger population health approach is needed to engage a wide range of stakeholders in coordinated efforts that can sustain the scope of behavior change. The shaping of socioeconomic environments can eventually lead to new social norms that promote eye and vision health. Making Eye Health a Population Health Imperative: Vision for Tomorrow proposes a new population-centered framework to guide action and coordination among various, and sometimes competing, stakeholders in pursuit of improved eye and vision health and health equity in the United States. Building on the momentum of previous public health efforts, this report also introduces a model for action that highlights different levels of prevention activities across a range of stakeholders and provides specific examples of how population health strategies can be translated into cohesive areas for action at federal, state, and local levels.
