This book is a dissection manual and atlas on the anatomy of the eyelid, orbit, and lacrimal system; it functions as a succinct yet comprehensive resource. Opening chapters provide an introduction to the topic and outline instruments needed for the dissections. Subsequent chapters then describe the dissection of the eyelid in various layered approaches. Then, further discussions demonstrate the neuroanatomy of the cranial fossae, the cavernous sinus, and the dissection of deep orbital structures from an anterior, superior and lateral approach. Closing chapters then examine the nasolacrimal system and nasal cavities Anatomy of the Eyelid, Orbit, and Lacrimal System is an expertly written invaluable resource for the surgeon seeking to enhance their knowledge and surgical skills.

This book is designed to help Lacrimal surgeons not only avoid their own mistakes, but correct the complications of patients referred to them. Lacrimal surgery is not a part of every ophthalmologist’s daily practice, but every eye care provider refers patients to the occuloplastic specialist who do these procedures. There have been exciting advances in recent years, including the advent of balloon assisted procedures. But, the increase in lasik procedures has led to dry eye as a common complication. This surgical "how to" book shows the general ophthalmologist and occuloplastic specialist how to effectively treat the range of lacrimal disorders.
