Identify and manage eye disorders commonly encountered in general medical practice.

GPEyes provides concise information for family medicine practitioners on how to examine the eye, manage common eye conditions, avoid mistakes and know when to refer. The App is richly illustrated with images relevant to family practice.

Dr Malcolm McKellar has 20 years of experience teaching ophthalmology to general medical practitioners. GPEyes brings his tutorials, magazine articles and clinical photos together in an up to date, easy to understand compendium of advice covering everything likely to be encountered in everyday practice.

‘Malcolm McKellar, a former optometrist and now ophthalmologist, is ideally qualified to produce a publication such as this. The electronic medium lends itself to the visual nature of ophthalmology and the author has certainly capitalised on this with his excellent illustrations. The clarity of the prose and the clinical aptitude of this text make it hardly surprising to learn that it is much sought after by medical libraries and ophthalmology departments all over the world. A. Prof. Gordon Sanderson, Department of Ophthalmology, Otago University, New Zealand.
