We’ve meticulously crafted this series to cover pivotal information required for certification exams in optometric assisting, low vision, surgical assisting, opticianry, and contact lens examiners.
Our book titled “General Medical Knowledge” is perfect for those desiring to learn or recap the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Recognizing the eye as part of the body’s holistic system, this eye-care study guide presents the fundamental concepts of anatomy and physiology, integrated with an overview of widespread diseases.
The structure of the book is divided into two sections. The first section kick-starts with the basics of cells and tissues, gradually moving to the various organ systems such as:
– Cardiovascular
– Respiratory
– Endocrine
– Nervous systems
The second section delves into systemic diseases and disorders, like connective tissue disease, age-related disorders, and neoplastic disorders. This section focuses on the impact of these diseases on eye health.
Our text equips eyecare professionals with a robust foundation of general medical knowledge, enhancing their understanding and practice. This book is not just an educational tool, but also a resourceful guide to ensure the best eye care for their patients.
