About this book

This book provides a comprehensive account of the pathogenesis, clinical features, and management of ocular vascular occlusive disorders, with the focus very much on the scientific evidence. This offers a sound basis for addressing the many controversies that surround these disorders, which collectively constitute the most common cause of visual impairment or blindness. The book is divided into two sections, the first of which addresses the basic science and encompasses vascular anatomy, blood supply and flow, and retinal tolerance time to acute ischemia. The second, clinical, section covers the presentation, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of the full range of vascular occlusive disorders of the retina, the choroid, the anterior segment of the eye, ophthalmic manifestations of carotid artery disease and the optic nerve. Ocular Vascular Occlusive Disorders, written by a distinguished world leader in the field, will be invaluable for general ophthalmologists, and particularly for retina specialists, neuro-ophthalmologists, and researchers.

His career dates back to the 1950s. In 1961 he was awarded the prestigious Beit Memorial Research Fellowship in Medical Sciences at the Institute of Ophthalmology, University of London. In subsequent decades Professor Hayreh made many seminal observations in the field and often challenged conventional thinking and dogmas. He has received numerous international honors and awards and has delivered several prestigious honorary lectures, including the Duke-Elder Lecture at the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, the William Mackenzie Lecture at the University of Glasgow, and the 2008 Green Lecture. He received the von Sallmann Prize for 1994 and the Arnall Patz Medal of the Macula Society in 2001. In 2002 Professor Hayreh was guest of honor at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, from whom he received a Senior Achievement Award in the following year. Also in 2003 he received the Mildred Weisenfeld Award for Excellence in Ophthalmology from the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.
