Among the publications that appeared in the early 2011, the book-manual titled „The Chicago Eye and Emergency Mannual“ attracted a great deal of attention in professional circles. At the end of March, the book was officially promoted at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, held in San Diego. This publication, which, in a succinct and illustrative way, conveys a clear picture of emergency conditions in ophthalmology (including postoperative complications), their etimology, clinical presentation (symptoms and signs) and the treatment, is the work of Dr. Thomas John, professor, Loyola University Chicago, and the MMA’s visiting professor. One of its authors is Col. Prof. Dr. Miroslav Vukosavljević, the head of the MMA’s Ophthalmology Clinic, who has given his valuable contribution by preparing the three chapters of this book titled „Symptoms and Signs“ (Chapter1), „Pediatric Ophthalmology“ (Chapter 12) and „Ocular Emergencies“ ( Chapter 13).
