The Evolutionary Basis of Strabismus and Nystagmus in Children
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-62719-5 (ISBN)
This collection of essays is poised to become a classic reference, providing the necessary neurological framework for contextualizing unique ocular motor disorder and understanding the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for their development in early childhood.
Written with focused interest for pediatric ophthalmologists and neuro-ophthalmologists, this reference will also find audience with ophthalmologists, neurologists, evolutionary biologists, and neuroscientists.
