Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Syllabus of a Course of Lectures on Diseases of the Eye, at the New-York Ophthalmic Hospital
Not wishing to in?ict upon the reader a lengthy panegyric usually termed a preface, I propose simply to express a few thoughts in defense of the present publication, with a word of encouragement to my jun ior pupils.
The unanimous expression of approbation from the medical press in relation to my Syllabus of a course of Lectures on diseases of the eye and the no less favo rable regard with which it has been received by my numerous opthalmic pupils, has induced the author to issue a second and much improved edition.
Besides some corrections and additions which have been made in the pathological and operative part of the work, I have added a complete synopsis of the ana tomy of the eye and its appendages, which was not in the former edition.
