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.

Ophthalmic Nursing provides an overview for those setting out in a role within ophthalmic nursing. It includes essential anatomy and physiology ? the foundations for understanding how the eye functions and why and how problems occur ? and relates them to the care and needs of the patient.
This clearly presented text draws on the most up-to-date evidence-based guidelines, and the inclusion of colour images, reflective questions, and exercises allows readers to apply their knowledge to the realities of the care setting. Beginning with chapters on practising as a nurse and the ophthalmic patient, the book goes on to outline the basics of an eye examination before introducing eye health and ill health in different parts of the eye and covering issues such as glaucoma and trauma and explore the role of artificial intelligence (AI). In the management of patients with glaucoma, the book also discusses the impact of COVID-19 on eye health and the impact of lockdown on patients who are visually impaired. It ends with a chapter focusing on ophthalmic drugs and includes two entirely new chapters on multi-professional ophthalmic-led clinics and vision rehabilitation. A new section in Appendix 4 sets out the competency assessment tools for the various expanded role.
A valuable resource for nurses and healthcare professionals in practice and training, this book continues to be the ?go-to? source for those caring for the ophthalmic patient.
