Small Animal Ophthalmology: What's Your Diagnosis? is one of the first books in an exciting new series that combines problem-based learning, case studies, and questions and answers. Designed specifically for veterinarians and students, the series aims to present material in a format to enhance critical thinking and understanding. Adopting a case-based approach, chapters are built around common ophthalmic presentations and are directed by questions to test the reader's ability to interpret clinical history, ophthalmic photographs and diagnostic results in order to provide differential diagnoses, diagnostic plans and treatment options.

For veterinary students, this book is an ideal guide to how ophthalmology cases are handled in the clinical setting. For veterinary practitioners, it is an innovative and interesting way to increase their knowledge and skills in clinical ophthalmology.

Heidi Featherstone obtained her veterinary degree at the Royal Veterinary College in 1991 and completed a residency in veterinary ophthalmology at the Animal Health Trust. She became a Diplomate of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in 2001 and a Diplomate of the European College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists in 2005. Heidi works in a team of ophthalmologists at a multi-specialty hospital in West Midlands, UK. Elaine Holt obtained her veterinary degree at the University of Illinois and completed a residency in veterinary ophthalmology at the University of California Davis. She became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists in 2001 and a Diplomate of the European College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists in 2006.
