Fifty-eight edited and invited papers from the Enoch Vision Science Symposium held in honor of vision science pioneer Dr. Jay Enoch during April, 1996. The contributors expand Enoch's work and introduce novel topics in the areas of photoreceptor optics, ophthalmic and visual optics, binocular vision, developmental vision, eye movements, physiology, ophthalmic dysfunction, visual psychophysics, and the history of visual science. Of special note are featured papers highlighting new developments in retinal imaging, pathophysiology, and visual diagnostic techniques. Lacks an index.

Basic and Clinical Applications of Vision Sciences contains the edited papers presented at the Enoch Vision Science Symposium, April 27-30 1996, which was organized in honor of the pioneer in vision science, Dr Jay M Enoch. Dr Enoch served for twelve years as Dean, School of Optometry, University of California, Berkeley. The book is organized along the lines of Dr. Enoch's contributions to vision science, but is not limited to these topics. Of special note, the reader will find papers on important new developments in photoreceptor, ophthalmic and visual optics, retinal imaging, ophthalmic physiology and pathophysiology, visual psychophysics and visual techniques. The papers are grouped into the following sections: photoreceptor optics; ophthalmic and visual optics; binocular vision, developmental vision, eye movements and physiology; ophthalmic dysfunction; visual psychophysics and clinical applications; history of vision science.
