Basic and Clinical Applications of Vision Science

The textbook "Basic and Clinical Applications of Vision Science" offers a comprehensive collection of edited contributions presented during the Enoch Vision Science Symposium in April 1996. This symposium was organized in honor of the visionary scientist Dr. Jay M. Enoch, who served as Dean of the School of Optometry at the University of California, Berkeley, for over twelve years. The content of the book is thematically oriented around Dr. Enoch's significant contributions to vision science, but it also covers a wide range of additional topics. Notably, it highlights current developments in the fields of photoreceptors, ophthalmic and visual optics, retinal imaging, ophthalmic physiology and pathophysiology, as well as visual psychophysics and clinical applications. The contributions are divided into various sections, including photoreceptor optics, ophthalmic and visual optics, binocular vision, developmental vision, eye movements and physiology, ophthalmic dysfunctions, and the history of vision science.
