    Just to let you know that I appreciate you having Ophthobook online. Thank you for having this info. free. As a first semester Ophthalmic Student I cannot afford to buy additional supplies to aid me.

    While in class sometime I do not understand some stuff and the first thing I do is get on your website where information is always explained in a way that I can understand.

  18. What about the visual acuity, visual fields and red reflex… My professor is obsessed about it!
    Would you please make a video about it Doctor? 😀

    PS. I love you (I am NOT gay BTW).

    Found this sight very beneficial and helpful with E&M auditing and the 1997 eye examination. Do you have a special site or book or other recommendation in regards to the various abbreviations that are utilized and not common in most medical abbreviations books?

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge. God bless you and AMERICA!

  24. Very good website.
    Please update and place more lessons.

    It is very good, if you can prepare the step of learning ophthalmology (Schedule for the whole year end). It means what the first year resident should start to read/know, next what to read/do.

    Thanks.

    Best regards,

  25. When a patient can see the light but cannot track it, is there something wrong with the eye?
    Thanks.

    Tim Root: Yes. Unless you’re talking about religion.

  26. just love it

    🙂

  27. I practice Family medicine, and I saw the lecture on anatomy of the eye, very great
    I apprentice your input for free

  28. I cannot thank you enough for the plethora of information, as if the abbreviations weren’t enough, and now you have provided all this HPI information too. Yes, it is very easy to understand. Call me one happy transcriptionist.
    Do you do Ortho too?? lol

  29. really nice presentation.looking 4 material like this

  30. Kristi Hunter says:

    I enjoyed your website information on the eye exam. The information is easy to understand and I appreciate the bit of humor you add. Thank you for taking the time and effort.

  31. Incredible – your book is a lifesaver from all the mediocre MDs out there who think their MD degree automatically came with a pedagogy license!

    Easy & gud notes 4 Ophtho Students

  33. What does is mean by “fundus not visualized”? Is this a normal or abnormal finding?

  34. hi there. just wondering, what does ATs stand for under the meds section of the sample note? (page 10)

  35. Thank you so much for providing all this content for free Dr. Root. I’m currently rotating in Opthamology and your teachings are very VERY helpful. You have a teaching gift 🙂

  36. thank you so much for your book. it really helps

  38. THANK YOU SO MUCH. You are amazing DR. Root.

  39. Fantastic resource! Makes a difficult topic easy to understand. Thank you very much!!!

  40. Awesome resource!! you’re amazing Doctor!! very useful for my ophthalmology clinical posting..

  41. Thank you very very much’ how you have tried to help medical students who are interesting to learn opthalmology

  42. It takes a lot of seflessness to give this kind of resource for free…..you are the man

  43. i am writing to find out that when someone goes to an eye Dr for an exam and their eyes are worse,do the numbers usually go up or down.I am wondering as my husband’s eyes are worse and last time the one said 625 rt eye and 525 lt eye.now his new script says 575 rt eye and 400 left eye. is that possible or are those numbers an indication of the eyes getting worse? my number is 7169900134/ we cannot afford to go order glasses to find they are wrong. thank you.

    thanks man love you too.

  49. dr.abdullahi says:

    this is what i was looking.
    thanks.
    i need more information about fundus.
    thanks again.

  50. The swinging light test makes so much sense now. I was always curious why the optometrist would shine those bright lights in your eyes. Obviously they are testing for something, but it’s good to now know what it is they are looking for and watching.

  51. Thank you for a job well done.

  52. Thank you so much for all the time and energy used to put all this together for all of us who have interest in Ophthalmology. You made things easy to understand. Comprehensive, structured and practical. Well done!
    P.S. How can I avoid the allocation of an ugly icon to my comment?… 🙂
