Clinical Manual of Contact
Lenses, 4th ed.,
Edward Bennett and Vinita Henry
The practice of optometry is an art
and a science, and both aspects are well
represented in Ed Bennett and Vinita
Henrys Clinical Manual of Contact Lenses.
In its fourth edition, this work continues to
earn its reputation as a leading comprehen-
sive clinical reference. The authors share
their own expertise and incorporate the
expertise of a wealth of contributors in a
consistent accessible format. Its a natural
choice for students and educators, and
anyone who ts contact lenses could benet
from what it has to offer.
The range of topics covered in this text is
broad, from basic knowledge for the stu-
dent to advanced techniques for the expe-
rienced practitioner, including preliminary
examination, gas-permeable and soft lens
tting, astigmatism, presbyopia, a host of
specialty lenses, problem solving, and more.
This edition has many updates, such as a
section on lid wiper epitheliopathy and a
chapter on scleral lenses. The content is
backed by plenty of science, and the authors
do an excellent job of conveying key ndings
without overwhelming the reader with study
details. (Thats what references are for, and
they are extensiveVthe overnight wear
chapter alone lists 335.) The artistic side is
evident as well. The authors describe their
own approaches but take care to include a
variety of alternative strategies.
Each chapter is well organized and con-
cludes with illustrative examples of the appli-
cation of the principles to patient cases. The
gures are helpful, and the numerous tables
are replete with information for easy reference.
The index is detailed but even greater search
capability is available in the online version of
the book, which comes with this edition.
There is little to criticize. Certainly, some
redundancies may be found between chap-
ters (some facts are relevant to more thanone
topic), but that is forgivable, considering
that it is more likely to be used as a reference
than read cover to cover. All in all, there are
few aws in this gem of a book and it is
heartily recommended for anyoneVnovice
or expertVwho would like to learn more
about contact lenses.
