Diabetes Mellitus is the leading cause of blindness despite the fact that it is easily treated. One reason is a lack of education; individuals with diabetes mellitus tend to see physicians less frequently the longer they have their disease under control. Subtle changes that would have been detected by the physician are not noted by the patients. This new book is an up-to-date review of the ocular problems associated with diabetes mellitus. It covers the basic pathophysiology both of diabetes mellitus and its effects on all components of the eye. Of special interest are the chapters on the ocular surface, lens, and neuro-ophthalmology - comprehensive coverage of diabetes-related disorders not available in book form elsewhere.
