The aim of this book has always been to give guidance on thediagnosis and treatment of ocular motility disorders based onclinical experience, as opposed to a comprehensive treatise on thesubject drawn from the primary literature.
The Third Edition sees a new team of authors who have kept verymuch to this priniciple in their nevertheless thorough revision ofthe book. Whilst there are no new chapters as such, the immediateimpact of the revision is in the improved page layout withincreased use of diagrams and flowcharts. There are new sections onfeigned visual loss in adults and children, the management ofresidual defects and the section on botulinum toxin treatment inchapter 8 will be re-written to take account of the great advancesin this form of treatment.

"The sections on ocular movements, ocular deviation and binocularfunction are excellent; they are concise, brief, practical and areevidence of the authors' practical and commonsense approach... Themiddle sections on non-surgical and surgical management follow inthe same concise manner and I was very impressed with the cleardescription of complications and the suggestions that were madeabout the management... It is an excellent book and it deserves todo well as it is destined to!"
