“What is required is a clinically useful textbook for the practicing as well as the resident ophthalmologist, and I have striven to fill that need in this book. My focus has been on the practical application of well-accepted diagnostic techniques and the interpretation of clinically relevant information needed to form sound differential diagnoses.”
How Mayo Clinic legends Dr. C. Wilbur Rucker and Dr. Tom Kearns shaped Dr. Walsh’s landmark books.
“As a courtesy and because of my youth, I wrote him a letter suggesting he and I redo the book with Dr. Rucker as senior author. He was so kind that he wished me well and to do the book by myself since he was retired. He even sponsored me with the Academy. You don't see that courtesy in medicine nowadays.”

Read in Chapter 21: Eye Study Club“When he disagreed, he would ask in pencil if I really believed what I had written. When I got to the section on headaches, I was getting tired of the book and I wanted to get it finished. I included a segment called, 'Not Tonight Honey I Have a Headache.' His comments came back all over the page in red. I didn't do that to him again.”
