Dear Concerned Health Alerts Reader:
It's the first thing so many of my patients do when faced with an eye care issue: learn everything they can about the disorder to become the best-informed health consumer they can be.
But where do you start? The library? The internet? How can you tell what's current...what's accurate...what's safe?
Your own physician? If only doctors had the kind of time required to give their patients the in-depth education they want and need.
Introducing...
The 2008 Johns Hopkins White Paper: Vision
The expertise you require in the layman's language
you can understand and apply.
The Johns Hopkins White Papers redefine the term "informed consumer." In The 2008 Johns Hopkins White Paper: Vision, specialists from Johns Hopkins Medicine report in depth on the latest information regarding eye care and the many vision disorders which strike us as we get older.
Most of us take our vision for granted until we develop a disorder like cataracts, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, or diabetic retinopathy.
While people may fear losing their vision completely, it's important to realize that vision loss can often be halted, or even reversed, if it is caught early, and you choose the right treatment.
The 2008 Johns Hopkins White Paper: Vision, brings you the current state of knowledge in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of these four diseases, as well as expert guidance on coping with low vision.
