In the preface, Ernest Clark (1857-1932) remarks: "With the exception of the addition of four diagrams ... taken from my book on Eyestrain, no alterations of any importance have been made. Describes the methods of conducting an ophthalmoscopic examination and the ophthalmoscopic appearances of the normal and diseased fundus. This is the first of a series of atlases which cover other aspects of ophthalmology (external diseases and surgery of the eye)."
