Clinical Procedures in Primary Eye Care

Clinical Procedures in Primary Eye Care, 5th Edition, is a textbook that presents commonly encountered optometric techniques grounded in research evidence. Written by David B. Elliott, it provides practical instructions for performing primary care examinations to support clinical diagnosis and patient management.

The text addresses core clinical topics, including patient communication, visual function evaluation, refraction, prescribing, and binocular vision testing. It also covers contact lens assessment, ocular health evaluation, and normal anatomical variations.

Intended for optometry students, each procedure reviews when and how to perform clinical measurements using both research findings and clinical wisdom, accompanied by full-color photographs and diagrams.
