Ophthalmology Made Ridiculously Simple (Medmaster Ridiculously Simple)I am an retired ophthalmologist who spends part of the year supervising medical students in Australia. I deliver a number of lectures under the title of Undergraduate Ophthalmology. Drs Goldberg and Trattler's little book is an admirable resource for both me and the students I teach. For undergraduates, eye diseases are regarded as tiger country and this little book most certainly provides a splendid guide through the ocular jungle.Highly recommended.
As it states on the cover of the book, "All the ophthalmology necessary for the non-ophthalmologists." Great introductory book for those without any exposure to ophthalmology. It is not enough practical information for medical students to impress anybody on an ophthalmology rotation beyond the first couple of days and certainly not enough to confidently work up all but the most obvious findings on your own.In conclusion, great book for brief and succinct introduction to ophthalmology. Disagree with a prior review, poor book for ophthalmology rotation.
I work in an urgent care office and wanted a good eye reference book. This book is simple like it says but it is a little too simple and has not been a good reference book. I have since bought the Will's Eye Manual and love it.
The book is well written and straight to the point. Perfect for FP/IM clinical needs. The CD is great and has plenty of information that would otherwise require a lot more time to find.
Pros: easy to read, good and simple illustrations, everything you need without excess fuss (from a medical school perspective, not as a specialist)Cons: Clinical photographs would be appreciated. Not to be depended upon as an exhaustive resource. Fewer funny and memorable images for those used to "Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple".Would recommend for second year medical education classes as well as boards review.
I read this book the first week of my ophthalmology residency and I thought it was awesome! It was a very concise review with some new points worked in. It has a limited life (will not be of help after the first couple of months) but I think it is a must read for all new ophthalmology residents right before you start.
Very nicely put together along with the CD which I found very helpful and useful
I bought this book and had it sent to my daughter. She had been studying for her COA and has now passed that test and is working on her COT - An excellent adjunctive study guide.
