From the reviews of previous editions:

'Collin has managed to include those extremely pertinent points which are important to the operating surgeon... the book is full of a wealth of information on eyelid surgical procedures.' Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

'...a really excellent book packed with detail... I would recommend that a copy of this book be kept in all eye theatres...' Journal of the Irish College of Physicians and Surgeons

Reviews

"In this manual, Collin (a talented writer and an expert Ophthalmologist) weaves an expert narrative detailing the most common surgical eye procedures being performed today. Accordingly, this text proves to be required reading for all practitioners in the field -- noted for its crisp analysis and ordered format. (...) Moreover Collin brings much new information to the third edition of his treatise, including a fine segment on eyelid tumor management (an aspect of the discipline that is quite delicate and required the utmost care on the part of the physician). (...) Readers will find Systematic sharply written and easy to navigate, with logical use of illustrations meant to illuminate key procedural points of the text. If Ophthalmologists were to chose a single office reference to help escort them through surgically based procedures, they wouldn't go wrong by investing in this selection." The Electric Review, May/June 2006
