About this book

A “Clinical Pearl” is shorthand for that critical nugget of information that makes a procedure or a treatment option or therapeutic agent more effective, more efficient, and produces the best possible outcome. A pearl is essentially “off-label”. In surgical specialties, these pearls are even more important because knowing how to avoid complications is better for the patient and the physician. With this book, ophthalmologists and cosmetic surgeons can become more skilled and increase their numbers of successful outcomes.

"The editors … provide insight that may allow surgeons to perform more efficient, productive, and successful surgeries. … The book is intended for both aspiring surgeons and established surgeons in oculofacial plastic surgery. It is most suitable for those in the more advanced stages of their training … . It would also be of benefit to established surgeons wishing to broaden their knowledge of treating a particular surgical problem. … useful for more experienced surgeons seeking additional insight … to treat a particular surgical problem." (M. Reza Vagefi, Doody’s Review Service, September, 2009)
