Section 4 presents a comprehensive exploration of ophthalmic pathology and intraocular tumors, divided into two parts. Part I,Ophthalmic Pathology, employs a hierarchical framework to derive a differential diagnosis for specific tissues, progressing from general to specific. This section offers a wealth of information, including images and videos, to enhance readers' understanding of ocular conditions.

Part II,Intraocular Tumors, compiles selected clinical aspects of importance to the general ophthalmologist. It provides a valuable resource for practitioners seeking to stay updated on the latest advancements in the field.

By the end of Section 4, readers will have gained a structured approach to understanding major ocular conditions, encompassing a hierarchical framework of topography, disease process, general diagnosis, and differential diagnosis. They will also have a thorough understanding of the steps involved in handling ocular specimens for pathologic study, including obtaining, dissecting, processing, and staining tissues. Additionally, readers will be equipped to identify ophthalmic lesions that indicate systemic disease and are potentially life-threatening.

This section is a valuable resource for ophthalmologists, residents, and students, as it offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of ophthalmic pathology and intraocular tumors.
