4Preface to the First Edition
At the beginning of their career, the trainee house surgeons and the postgraduate students of ophthalmology get puzzled as to how to start examining the patients systematically, how to use the diagnostic instruments precisely and which investigations are to be ordered for arriving at the proper diagnosis in a short period. Morever, the recent fleet of newer instruments leave them perplexed.
The authors who are working as clinical tutors of ophthalmology in different teaching hospitals feel the problem of the new trainees. They believe that there is no such single book that can guide the trainees in this regard at the beginning of their career.
This book has been written to fill up this gap. The book is expected to guide them towards a systematic approach to ophthalmology and help them learn the handling of the basic instruments faster.
This book embodies the compactness of presentation and reflects the way we teach our students.
We sincerely thank our colleagues who helped us in preparing this book. Dr Souvik Banerjee has helped us in preparing some portions of the book. Dr Nilay Majumdar, Shri Tamonash Bhattacharjee and Dr Somenath Ghosh have helped us in preparing the illustrations.

5Preface to the Second Edition
At the beginning of their career, the trainee house surgeons and the post-graduate students of ophthalmology get puzzled as to how to start examining the patients systematically, how to use the diagnostic instruments precisely and which investigations are to be ordered for arriving at the diagnosis. There is no such single book that can guide them in this regard. This book is a humble effort to fill up this gap. This book is expected to guide them towards a systematic approach to ophthalmological examination.
