Rating:  - Highest Recommendation
For a comprehensive book on vitreoretinal disease, there is little to find fault with. For some less common diseases, I found the descriptions in the Gass atlas to be more detailed. Howevere, much is covered in the Ryan series that is not covered in Don Gass's atlas and so the books are complementary. The amount of detail is appropriate for this level of textbook. With three large volumes, it has proved to be a daunting task to get through it all. Retention of all this material is also not easy. ... Read More
Rating: - a starting point of any research topic in retina basic sciences
I found it helpful to form an overview of retinal photoreceptor's connecting cilium relation to retinal degerative diseases. initially I did not know where to start my research but after reading the book section about connecting cilium structure and function , I formed a plan of what are the main topics in my research.

Rating: - Highly recommended
This book is considered the "Bible" for vitreo-retinal specialists, as this book gives a comprehensive and conscise insight to diseases, treatment and opinions in the subspecialty. I highly recommend this book to any general ophthalmologist who has a keen interest in the vitreo-retinal subspecialty, and to those who are planning to take post-residency fellowships in this subspecialty.
Rating: - An excellent book for a resident
I just graduated from medical school and trying to become an Ophthalmologist. Since I am not an English speaking person, it is difficult to get informations in English. However, each sections and chapters of this book is well organized and helps me to get accustomed to the medical terms in Ophthalmology. This book is easier to understand than the text books written in Japanese (I am a Japanese).
