"This book fills an important need because there are few books currently available on this subject. The authors have done a commendable job of providing education on the most common procedures and instruments…It is written for everyone from the novice performing basic testing all the way to the most advanced technician collecting information on the pupil and ocular tensions…This second edition book is a big improvement over the first edition in both content and presentation of the procedures. It is an excellent learning guide for all ancillary personnel involved in providing eye care in the clinical setting…For the technician new to the eye care field, this is hands down the best starter book available today." -Brian D.
