If you study the Ophthalmology Review Manual and work the questions in this book, you will do well on OKAPS. The questions in this book are superb. They really hit the highlights on very important topics. I would supplement the optics, and would supplement the pathology sections (as would be expected).I recently bough the Mass Eye and Ear Review Manual and it is good too. It has more questions, but the questions are not as good overall. There is a lot more minutia in the Mass Eye and Ear question book. The Chern book you will get the most bang for your buck, hands down.
I used this book and Mass Eye and Ear for OKAPs and found them very useful. Particularly the new edition has more pictures including colorful images and the content is more updated to reflect changes in knowledge.The plastics section is nice as there are several CT scan. The cornea section has several color slides that are useful for oral board review too.The questions in this book are not as difficult as Mass Eye + Ear but the explanations are better and the book is designed to enhance the learning experience.Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone studying for OKAPs or boards. A must have!
If you have the older edition, do not buy this update. It is the exact same, except for the cover.
The questions in this book look very much like the questions in the BCSC series and the OKAPs, which are supposed to look like the boards. Do well on these questions and you should do well on your standardized exams in Ophthalmology. I was dissapointed that many fundus photos were presented in back and white, and not in color as the Chern review manual shows them, but if you can recognize the diseases by clinical presentation and a B&W photo, then you are sure to nail the diagnosis in clinic. I think that this is the most relevant Q&A book available, and it is also one of the most recently updated.
Overall a nice supplement for the boards - it seems to have enough variety and not come straight from the Chern review book. Pictures are decent - not all in color yet. Gives nice explanatations to answers.
This question book used to be the standard one that every Ophthalmology resident and/or fellow bought to prepare for his or her OKAPs and Written Board examinations. Though not bad, the questions are somewhat outdated and there are many typos littered throughout the book. I prefer to use online questions "books" such as ophthoquestions.com and occasionally even the AAO's ProVision service. I just don't think this book is worth $100 anymore.
Of all the question books out there, these are the most similar to OKAPS and the most high yield. I find the Mass eye and ear questions too detailed and other such books don't even come close to this classic. Use it for boards and okaps. Pictures and explanations are second to none. As an aside, I hear there may be a new edition in the works. May want to wait for that but I'm not certain.
