Clinical Optics by Andrew R. Elkington, Helena J. Frank and Michael J. Greaney

“An essential revision text for the optics component of the FRCOphth and MRCOphth.”

“Helpful both in making the text more comprehensive as a reference text alone and also as an invaluable revision aid for the part two MRCOphth”

Having spoken with other people who'd studied optics before, their opinions of this book were mixed. Some who's opinions and study methods I really respected hated it, so I approached it with trepidation. But as I flicked through this 250-page book, I grew very fond of it. And I think you will too. Well-formatted, full of diagrams, it contains just enough mathematical equations to be a little scary without being completely off-putting. The text is concise, if sometimes a little brief, explaining difficult concepts well. Those who did not enjoy it complained that the diagrams were contradictory and confusing - I disagree. Although some of the diagrams are complex, with a little attention and thought they can help to clarify the idea that just sits beyond comprehension through the text alone. I liked it. If you're doing the Masters at Sydney Uni, it's a good choice.
