PREFACE
As we began our careers in ophthalmology, we were charged with the daunting task of teaching retina to ophthalmology residents. Clinical Retina evolved out of our efforts to provide residents the essential information about a given retinal condition in an organized, clinically relevant manner. Our goal was not to create another comprehensive, multi-volume reference book. There are several outstanding references currently available. Instead, we have attempted to develop a textbook-atlas that provides the reader a summary of the information on common and unusual retinal diseases. The use of highquality color figures was a must.
Contributing authors from the United States, Canada, and England have joined together to produce Clinical Retina. The textbook is organized using the traditional classification of retinal diseases. Within each chapter, conditions are presented in alphabetic order using a two-page format: text on the left page, figures on the right. Therefore, in two pages, the reader can review the essential material about a given retinal condition. The text is organized into sections: general information; symptoms; clinical features; ancillary testing; pathology/pathogenesis; treatment/prognosis; and systemic evaluation. A list of selected references is provided for those readers who desire more information.
Chapter 1 provides a review of the retinal anatomy and physiology and highlights important structures using ample clinical examples. Chapter 2 reviews commonly used ancillary studies including fluorescein angiography, electrophysiology, and ultrasonography.
Chapter 3, Clinical Features of Retinal Disease, describes a variety of ophthalmoscopic findings and provides a differential diagnosis of the most common conditions likely to manifest a particular feature. Photographic
examples are provided. This chapter provides a more “problem-based” approach to learning retina. If readers do not immediately recognize the diagnosis, they can identify significant clinical features and review the most common associations. Then, they can refer to the specific condition in the body of the textbook for more detailed information.
Chapters 4 through 12 cover the spectrum of retinal disease: Macular Diseases; Retinal Vascular Diseases; Hereditary Retinal Disorders; Drug Toxicities; Intraocular Tumors; Inflammatory Diseases; Trauma; Peripheral Retinal Diseases; and Diseases of the Vitreous. Chapter 13 reviews the histopathology of selected retinal diseases.
The major clinical trials for retinal diseases are summarized in Chapter 14, Clinical Trials in Retina. The reviews highlight the study objectives, treatment groups and trial design, summary of results, and implications for clinical practice. Chapter 15, Laser Photocoagulation and Photodynamic Therapy for Retinal and Choroidal Disease, provides information on the indications, treatment techniques, complications, and follow-up considerations of laser photocoagulation for a variety of conditions and photodynamic therapy for age-related macular degeneration.
Clinical Retina contains over 800 color and black and white photographs, one of the largest collections of retinal images in any ophthalmology textbook. The CDROM contains all of the figures displayed in the book as well as 50 additional images provided in a self-assess- ment program. Every attempt was made to ensure that the images used were of high quality and representative of the condition featured.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I am thankful to God for the opportunity to prepare this book. The entire process has been a tremendous life experience and I am grateful for the chance to participate. I appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with Barbara Blodi and all of the contributing authors during the preparation of Clinical Retina.
I would like to thank my wife, Betsy, for everything she has done for me over the past 20 years since we met in WAWA. She has been my teacher in so many ways and I am thankful to have her in my life.
I would like to thank my parents, Joan and Bob Quillen, and my brothers, Greg and Bobby Q, for their enthusiasm and support.
Throughout my life I have been blessed with special teachers. Mrs Schracht, Mrs Marrone, Mr Lange, Mr Mazziota, Mr Harris, Fr Burch, Cheston Berlin, George Blankenship, Tom Gardner, Ali Aminlari, Bill Cantore, Joe Sassani, James McManaway, George Rosenwasser, Don Gass, and numerous others have had a lasting impact on my life. They continue to inspire me to this day.
A special thank you to Tim Bennett, CRA, for his assistance in preparing this book. Photographs taken from Tim’s collection are scattered throughout this book and CD-ROM package. I appreciate the opportunity to share his gift with you.
Both Barb and I as well as many of the contributing authors have had the good fortune to work with Dr Gass as fellows. Dr Gass is an inspiration to us all. For me,
the opportunity to work with Dr Gass in Miami was life changing. He is a remarkable man in every way: honest, kind, thoughtful, insightful. His love of ophthalmology and humility regarding his accomplishments are examples for us all.
I would like to thank George Blankenship for his support and guidance. From the first day I decided to pursue a life in ophthalmology, George has been a friend and mentor.
I would like to thank my partners at the Penn State Department of Ophthalmology for their support over the past ten years. I am proud to be a member of the Penn State Ophthalmology family.
A special thank you to Barry Bowlus and Katharine Dvorak, and the rest of the staff at AMA Press who contributed to the development of Clinical Retina. To Barry, we appreciate your enthusiasm for this project and your unyielding commitment to excellence. To Katie, thank you for making this project your own. Your participation has greatly enhanced the quality of this book. —DQ
I am indebted to my parents, Frederick and Ottilie, who instilled in me a love of books, language, and learning. I am also grateful for my brother, Christopher, who has been a welcome mentor throughout my education and my professional career. My husband, Justin, has been a steady, calm, and encouraging influence on me; I thank him for his love, friendship, and constant support during this project. —BB

He performed his ophthalmology residency training at the Penn State Ophthalmology Residency Program. He completed his Medical Retina fellowship at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami under the direction of J. Donald M. Gass, MD. Dr Quillen has a strong interest in ophthalmology education and participates in a variety of local and national educational programs.
Dr Quillen is married to Betsy and has three children: Erin, Matthew, and Jack. In addition to ophthalmology, Dr Quillen enjoys dinner and a movie with Betsy, book shopping with Erin, playing and watching sports with Matt, and going to Chocolate World with Jack.
Barbara A. Blodi, MD is Associate Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Medical School in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences. She specializes in medical retina diseases.
Dr Blodi graduated from the University of Iowa School of Medicine in 1987 and completed her residency in ophthalmology at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami in 1991. She remained at Bascom Palmer for a fellowship in medical retina with J. Donald M. Gass, MD. This was followed by a year of surgical retina fellowship at the Kellogg Eye Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where Dr Blodi continued as a faculty member for two years.
Dr Blodi joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin in 1997 and became Associate Professor in 2001. She is currently Co-director of the Fundus Photograph Reading Center and collaborates on the design, conduct, and analysis of clinical trials in ophthalmology, specifically in the areas of age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
