Used this book during and after Optometry School for Boards. This was a great book in conjunction with the Wills Eye Manual. I found that there were certain diseases and/or descriptions that the Massachusetts didn't have, but the Wills did and vice versa.

This book is amazing for clinic and studying. It has everything you need as far as I am concerned. I'm in Optometry school and this is the best book I have bought so far!
