Book excerpt: "As clinicians we are healers and scientists. As scientists in this modern era, we are wedded to technology. One of these ophthalmic technologies that encompasses our practices is lasers. Ophthalmic lasers have an expansive and multi-functional role in ophthalmology and optometry. They can now be applied to almost every crucial ocular structure in an elegant and efficacious manner. At the same time, this diversification of ophthalmic lasers may make it difficult for practitioners, and especially those in training, to have ready access to all the technical knowledge regarding their practical clinical applications. This is why the idea of gathering such essential laser information for the practicing clinician was conceived. Although there have been previous references published regarding one or another specific laser technique, a more comprehensive source that covers all the fundamental ocular lasers with current clinical relevance has been lacking. We hope The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook will fill this void. The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook has been designed to provide concise, relevant clinical laser information arranged in a consistent easy-to-use format. Most of the chapters contain specific key indications, contraindications, pre-operative considerations and procedural points. Post-operative considerations are also thoroughly addressed. This part of the chapter should be of considerable value to those who are co-managing these laser patients. One of the most distinctive assets of this laser handbook are its contributors and section editors. All have significant clinical experience in either performing the laser procedures or co-managing laser patients. Laser treatment involves a dynamic process. This is why The Ophthalmic Laser Handbook is both a soft cover text and companion eBook. The eBook contains all of the material found in the soft cover text with an extensive collection of laser surgical videos. As a bonus, we have included several non-laser chapters including corneal cross-linking and intense pulsed light therapy. Although these techniques rely on devices that are not lasers by definition, electromagnetic radiation is used to therapeutically manipulate tissue and these topics seamlessly fit with the overall scheme of our book"--
