Stručný přehled oftalmologie (2026)

This practical guide to ophthalmology explains how to safely examine patients with acute eye problems, recognize what can be managed in a general practice or emergency department, and determine when referral to a specialist is necessary. It covers the most common eye diseases and effective approaches to their diagnosis and treatment, provides a clear triage aid for quickly assessing the seriousness and urgency of a condition, and includes a glossary of common ophthalmological terms and medicines to help readers understand medical reports. It also guides readers through basic examinations and the interpretation of their results. Symbols indicate which procedures are safe to perform in general practice or emergency care and when an ophthalmologist should take over. Red-flag boxes draw attention to critical clinical situations that must not be overlooked. The Czech-language book is intended for medical students, junior doctors, general practitioners, emergency physicians and younger ophthalmologists who want to deepen or refresh their knowledge of diagnosis, treatment and referral to ophthalmology.
