‘Conjunctiva’ provides the reader with a practical approach to the assessment and management of conjunctival disease. After outlining the relevant anatomy and physiology of this structure, the chapter addresses the key clinical presentations arising from conjunctival disease, notably infective conjunctivitis (including bacterial, viral and chlamydial), allergic conjunctivitis, cicatricial conjunctivitis, dry eyes and conjunctival lesions. Using a patient-centred approach the key clinical features, investigations and treatment (medical and surgical) are described for each condition. There is also extended discussion around the role of amniotic membrane transplantation and corneal transplantation.
