Colour Atlas of Ophthalmology

By: Arthur Lim Siew Ming,Ian J Constable

Colour Atlas of Ophthalmology, Second Edition provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of ophthalmology. This book provides the correct diagnosis and treatment of many ocular disorders. Organized into 11 chapters, this edition begins with an overview of the process of assessment of a patient with eye disease, which includes taking a good history, examining the eyes with adequate illumination, and testing the visual function. This text then describes exophthalmos, which is the most common condition of the orbit and indicates the possibility of thyroid disease or a space-occupying lesion. Other chapters consider the common causes of ocular injuries, including injury from flying particles, sharp instruments, chemicals, and ocular injury associated with head injury. The final chapter deals with the common, therapeutic, and diagnostic ocular drugs. This book is a valuable resource for ophthalmologists, physicians, nurses, students, and all those paramedical personnel who have to deal with common eye disease.

Vision for the World

Eye Surgeons' Solution to Mass Blindness : a Major World Medical Problem

By: Arthur Siew Ming Lim

The problem of mass blindness today stems largely from cataract which accounts for a total of 40 million cataract victims in the world -- and it will worsen with the ageing population. Fortunately, this problem can be resolved with cost effective extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and posterior chamber implantation (PCI). This book highlights how the use of ECCE and PCI can restore normal vision to cataract victims around the world. A successful approach is to establish training centres. The success of the International Intraocular Implant Training Centre (IIITC) in the Peoples' Republic of China is cited to show that implant surgery for cataracts can be successfully performed in communities in developing nations in Asia with appropriate training and supervision. The centre has since yielded excellent results with cost effective ECCE and PCI. The book challenges eye surgeons around the world to unite to address a global need to contain world cataract blindness.

SERI

Singapore's World Class Research

By: Arthur Siew Ming Lim

Just 10 years ago, ophthalmic research was almost unheard of in Singapore. With little money and no infrastructure, ophthalmologists and scientists expressed scant interest in research. Today, however, ophthalmic research in Singapore is at a high international level, as exemplified by the activities of the Singapore Eye Research Institute (SERI), which is capable of competing with and challenging the world's leading eye research centers. Indeed, the world-class research carried out at SERI has helped to extend Singapore's international reach as the country moves towards its goal of becoming a global city and a leading nation influencing developments across Asia and the world.This book summarizes a decade of hard work, dedication, and commitment by a handful of doctors and researchers in their efforts to establish SERI and ensure its success. In particular, the remarkable contributions of two of Singapore's ophthalmic pioneers, the late Associate Professor Chew Sek Jin and current Professor Donald Tan, are acknowledged. The book will inspire leaders of developing nations in visualizing how research can develop rapidly in their own country, and how support and facilities may materialize if they can gather a few dedicated, intelligent researchers.

An Introduction to Medical Ethics

Patient's Interest First

By: Arthur Siew Ming Lim

Throughout history, men have repeatedly made judgments regarding their own conduct and that of their fellow men. Some acts have been judged to be right or good, while other acts have been denounced as wrong or evil. Ethical judgment in medicine, as in other areas of life, is an attempt to distinguish between good and bad conduct. This book is based on three lectures given by the author as the Medical Director of Eye Clinic Singapura International. The first lecture was an address delivered to medical undergraduates at the National University of Singapore in 1975. The second was a Commonwealth Medical Association lecture delivered a decade ago. The third was a Singapore Medical Association lecture delivered in 1981. This volume, emphasizing the principles of medical ethics, has been kept simple and brief, and it is hoped that it will make interesting reading for both medical professionals and the general public. Sample Chapter(s). History (77 KB). Introduction (58 KB). What makes a good doctor? (46 KB). Contents: Introduction; History; Good Doctor; Changes; What of Singapore; Perfection; Finance; Technology; Relationship with Colleague; Relationship with Patients; Relationship with Society; Advertising; Conclusion. Readership: Medical students and doctors.

Patient's Interest First

The Nature of Medical Ethics and the Dilemma of a Good Doctor

By: Arthur M. Lim

Many of the challenges of medical ethics today were nonexistent during the time when Hippocrates wrote his famous oath. In an increasingly complex world, many more new ethical issues will impact on the practice of medicine in the 21st century: quality care, growing patient demand, high technology, the definition of death, and controversies relating to the right to live and the right to die. In addition, there will be questions raised with regard to issues and practices such as research on embryos, genetic engineering, experiments on animals and clinical trials, and the problems of limited medical resources. These can lead to grave dilemmas, causing uncertainty and confusion in the medical profession.This book is based on the lectures and essays on medical ethics by a number of leading Singapore doctors. It records the thoughts of the leaders on medical ethics, and discusses a range of important and controversial issues. It will be a valuable reference for medical students as well as interesting and informative reading for both the professional and the lay reader.

Did I Give Back Enough?

By: Arthur Siew Ming Lim,Charity Wai

The aim of this book is to encourage Singaporeans to give back to society and this applies not only to the wealthy but also to everyone. Giving back to society could take the form of donation of money, contributing one's time, skills, effort and so on. Both Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong have spoken extensively about the need for our society to care for the less fortunate, and that we should aspire to become a "giving society." It is hoped that the stories in this book will imbue readers with a spirit of giving. The book includes first-hand accounts by a wide spectrum of people from renowned philanthropits to common folks. It contains interesting anecdotes with insights into each individual's thought and feelings with regard to giving. The book is written in an easy-to-read style and contains attractive photos and stirring pictures. This book contains real-life stories of some 100 people and groups who have given generously in various ways, particularly in Singapore. The areas in which they have contributed include education, medicine and for poverty alleviation programs.
