Parsons’ Diseases of the Eye, 23rd Edition, by Ramanjit Sihota and Radhika Tandon (Elsevier), is the most trusted ophthalmology reference for students and clinicians. This updated edition provides comprehensive coverage of ocular anatomy and physiology, optics and refraction, and systematic clinical examination techniques. From glaucoma and corneal diseases to retina and vitreous disorders and squint, each chapter integrates pathophysiology with evidence-based management. Dedicated sections cover ophthalmic emergencies, systemic ophthalmology, preventive ophthalmology, and practical use of ophthalmic instruments.

Parsons’ Diseases of the Eye, 23rd Edition is the definitive, gold-standard book in ophthalmology, meticulously revised by renowned experts Ramanjit Sihota and Radhika Tandon and published by Elsevier. This latest edition continues a legacy of over a century as an indispensable clinical resource for undergraduate medical students, postgraduate trainees, practising ophthalmologists, and optometrists. The book delivers a comprehensive yet practical approach to ocular pathology, clinical examination, and evidence-based treatment protocols.

Structured for progressive learning, the text is organised into ten major sections, beginning with foundational anatomy and physiology of the eye and the visual pathway. Early chapters demystify optics and refraction, covering the optical system of the normal eye, clinical refraction, and all major refractive errors. The 23rd edition places a strong emphasis on basics of clinical examination, including dedicated chapters on history taking, systematic clinical evaluation, modern clinical investigations, and the principles of ocular therapeutics and lasers.

The core of the book provides exhaustive coverage of diseases of the eye, from the anterior to the posterior segment. Readers will find detailed discussions on diseases of the conjunctiva, cornea, sclera, uveal tract, and lens. A dedicated, updated chapter on glaucoma covers pathophysiology, diagnostics, and medical/surgical management. Comprehensive sections on diseases of the retina and vitreous, optic nerve disorders, and intraocular tumours ensure that readers are equipped to diagnose and manage complex posterior segment pathology.

For those managing eye movements and their disorders, the text offers clear explanations of the motor mechanism, comitant strabismus (squint), and paralytic squint. Separate sections on diseases of the adnexa (eyelids, lacrimal apparatus, and orbit) and systemic ophthalmology link ocular findings to diseases of the nervous system and systemic disorders. The book excels in practical application with dedicated chapters on ophthalmic emergencies—covering both eye injuries and nontraumatic emergencies—as well as preventive ophthalmology, including genetics in ophthalmology and community ophthalmology. A practical guide to ophthalmic instruments and dark room procedures rounds out the clinical utility.

Appendices provide high-yield information on local anaesthesia, radiology illustrations, and case studies, bridging the gap between theory and clinical practice. Published by Elsevier, a trusted name in medical education, this edition features updated illustrations, revised treatment algorithms, and the latest clinical guidelines. Whether preparing for postgraduate entrance examinations, managing a busy emergency department, or seeking a quick refresher on a specific ocular condition, Parsons’ Diseases of the Eye, 23rd Edition remains the essential, trusted companion.the basics
