Aging in Ophthalmology

Discover Aging in Ophthalmology by Jorge L Alio MD, an essential resource for clinicians, residents, and eye-care teams confronting the challenges of an aging global population. This authoritative volume captures contemporary clinical strategies and practical insights for diagnosing and managing age-related eye disease—cataract, macular degeneration, glaucoma, dry eye, and presbyopia—within modern practice settings from Europe to North America and the Asia-Pacific.

Beginning with a compelling overview of the demographic forces reshaping ophthalmic care, the book moves quickly into evidence-based approaches and surgical innovations that improve outcomes for older patients. Clear, clinically focused chapters translate complex research into usable protocols for preoperative assessment, postoperative care, medical management, and multidisciplinary collaboration with geriatric medicine and primary care.

Written in a professional yet approachable voice, Dr. Alio blends clinical precision with real-world case examples that help readers refine decision-making across diverse healthcare systems. Highlights include patient-centered strategies to preserve vision and quality of life, risk-reduction techniques for surgical candidates, and practical guidance on managing coexisting systemic conditions common in older adults.
