      Ce livre+ebook a pour objet l'enseignement par la vidéo des interventions chirurgicales le plus souvent pratiquées dans le traitement du glaucome – trabéculectomie et sclérectomie non perforante avec trabéculectomie externe – ainsi que dans la prise en charge des glaucomes réfractaires. Ces interventions chirurgicales sont présentées étape par étape à travers plus de 240 séquences vidéos, toutes détaillées dans la table des vidéos et appelées au fil du texte. Elles illustrent la diversité possible des gestes chirurgicaux, les complications chirurgicales qui peuvent survenir et la gestion de ces complications. Ces vidéos s'accompagnent également d'un texte précis qui, pour chaque geste, fixe les objectifs à atteindre, souligne les difficultés à surmonter, précise les écueils à éviter, délivre les « trucs et astuces » des meilleurs chirurgiens. L'objectif est de fournir une conduite à tenir pratique, permettant d'améliorer l'efficacité et la sécurité de chaque phase des interventions classiques, mais aussi d'évoquer les éléments nécessaires en cas de difficulté, en insistant sur la gestion des complications. Fruit des expériences chirurgicales de l'ensemble des collaborateurs, l'ouvrage est conçu comme un guide de compagnonnage à l'usage de tous les chirurgiens ophtalmologistes. Ce livre+ebook novateur constitue une référence absolue dans le domaine de la pédagogie chirurgicale. L'achat du livre papier donne accès à l'ebook.
