Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This comprehensive handbook offers a timely and up-to-date summary of visual optics, covering the fundamental principles, instrumentation, related methodologies, and clinical implications. Volume one gives an introduction to optical principles, ocular anatomy and physiology, and ophthalmic instruments, as well as a detailed treatment of the optics of the eye and retina. Volume two discusses instruments for imaging and visual testing, devices and techniques for visual correction, and the relationship between ocular optics and visual perception.
MoreLong description:
Handbook of Visual Optics offers an authoritative overview of encyclopedic knowledge in the field of physiological optics. It builds from fundamental concepts to the science and technology of instruments and practical procedures of vision correction, integrating expert knowledge from physics, medicine, biology, psychology, and engineering. The chapters comprehensively cover all aspects of modern study and practice, from optical principles and optics of the eye and retina to novel ophthalmic tools for imaging and visual testing, devices and techniques for visual correction, and the relationship between ocular optics and visual perception.
"This monumental and highly recommended work is a tribute to the irrevocable connection between the visual system (eye and brain) and optics. Outstanding benefits in diagnosing, treating and correcting vision improve lives throughout the world…. Artal and his contributors deftly explain the fundaments of geometrical and physical optics, as well as the anatomy, physiological optics, instrumentation and neuroscience related to vision, in a manner that is clear, comprehensive, modern and historically correct in the attribution of credit. The rigorous text is augmented by full-color graphics, clinical images, tables of clinical data, and extensive references."
–Optics & Photonics News (Jul 2017), review by Barry R. Masters
"The Handbook is very readable…. It is most appropriate for researchers in visual optics and those involved in the design and testing of ophthalmic and optometric instrumentation. Trainees seeking a deeper understanding of the eye’s physiological optical system would also benefit from reading this text."
–EuroTimes (Nov 2017)
