ACVO Supplemental ("Classic") Journal Article List (Revised 10/13)

"The following articles are considered recommended reading for veterinary ophthalmologists and ophthalmology residents. However, specific exam questions will not originate from these articles. Most are still available in many veterinary school libraries."

Librarian's notes:

1) The citations to the 87 articles on this are linked to the PubMed record, where possible. At least one was in a library archive. It is labled "Full Text Available". If the article does not have a link, that means no link to PubMed was available.

2) Most of the citations to veterinary journals are in veterinary libraries, but depending on the library, the citations to human ophth journals, especially older citations, may not be in the collection of a veterinary library for various reasons. If you are planning a visit to a library to find these articles, be sure to contact a librarian at the library well beforehand to save time and energy for the exam!
