The main objective of this book is to introduce to the undergraduate students the subject of ophthalmology in a simplified manner in the form of questions and answers. The new CBME curriculum brings with it a finely structured method of learning both theory and practical aspects of ophthalmology. Also, the upcoming pattern of evaluation is another overwhelming change that a student must gear up for NEXT. Keeping these two new developments in mind, the questions are framed using Bloom’s taxonomy verbs and the answers are written in a structured format using bulleted points to ease learning, understanding and memorizing.
