This is a well-organized, practical and concise book. The illustrations are very good in quality and well chosen. It’s not a book to learn for the first time if you are a resident, but it’s a must have when you already have a little more time in the ophthalmology field, let’s say from a third year resident to all ages. Very useful for ABO recertification

I used this book for my ABO recertification test. It is well laid out with all the bullet phrases included in the sections to help find info quickly. No major flaws noted. A very good desk reference for the minutiae we all forget over time.

This is a great review of all of the BCSC series, just without the all the fluff. The only downside is relatively few pictures. Has good questions at the end of each section. Very good if you’ve seen the material before and need to be refreshed before an exam.

I thought this book was colorful with great tables and pictures, i.e. for the white dot syndromes. It is not always organized in the most easy to read or reference way. I think the optics and neuro op sections for example are organized in a difficult to follow way. I have not tried the Chern book but heard it is a little bit easier to memorize. You definitely need to supplement this book with the BCSC series, it is not a good primary tool for learning ophtho. I did really like how colorful the book is and there is space in the margins to make your own notes.

This book is best for reviewing for OKAPS. It is not a great book as far as learning ophthalmology goes, however. The Kanksi text is probably a better fit for those looking for a thorough read and reference. I have never taken an OKAPS exam, but all my friends how are residents swear by this book.
