Description
Sleep disorders are increasingly recognized to contribute to medical morbidities
and mortality. More and more ocular diseases are linked to sleep disorders,
among them in particular being obstructive sleep apnea. Management of these
ocular diseases requires a good understanding of such association and often
a collaborative approach with sleep disorder specialists. On the other hand,
many patients with sleep disorders have concurrent ocular disorders. With this
in mind, timely referral to ophthalmologists would greatly alleviate comorbidities
and improve the quality of life in such patients.
Eye Diseases Associated with Sleep Disorders emphasizes the underlying pathophysiology
of each ocular disorder in the respective setting of sleep disorders. A typical
case scenario is presented at the beginning of each chapter. The specific ocular
disease is then described in reader-friendly terms to facilitate an overall
understanding of the condition. The authors finally review the accumulated evidence
regarding the association between ocular diseases and sleep disorders, from
discussing possible underlying pathophysiologies to the analysis of clinical
study data. With a good understanding of the pathogenesis, this book helps bring
together primary care clinicians with eye care specialists for managing patient
morbidities in an easily digestible figure-rich format.
