It has been brought up to date by the inclusion of valuable information on the microscopy of the living eye and in the presentation of such matters as the recently advocated cautery of the eye in detachment of the retina. The author has maintained the original size of the book by omitting controversial subjects, stating facts that are regularly conceded by the better practitioners.
