FEATURED BOOKS ON OPHTHALMOLOGY FROM BARNES & NOBLE.COM:
Ophthalmology
The science that deals with structure, functions, and diseases of the eye, and the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases. This treatment is often done with medication and/or surgery. Someone who studies ophthalmology is known as an ophthalmologist. You can read more about the field of ophthalmology by going to the American Academy of Ophthalmology website.
Ophthalmology comes from the Greek word "opthalmos" meaning "eye," and the Greek word "logos" meaning "the study of." Put the two words together and you have "the study of (the) eye."
