The authors state that this book is designed primarily for the ophthalmologist-in-training, the practicing ophthalmologist who confronts diagnosis of complex muscle problems only casionally, and for the orthoptist. Neither the format nor the information contained would be helpful to the pediatrician, but the book is of significant interest to the pediatric ophthalmologist (of whom there are 25 or 30 in North America now).
The Atlas outlines and beautifully illustrates the procedures in muscle diagnosis, but with a less thorough approach to therapy.
