I recommend getting iSilo. I have several resources I can send you/post for download. There is a pediatric strabismus manual written by Bill Scott, MD (Iowa). I have laser settings for different surgical procedures. I have a table with antibiotic dosages in ophthalmology including concentration for fortified antibiotics. In addition, EyeRounds.org (www.EyeRounds.org/downloads.htm) offers a trauma manual for you to use as an iSilo database. After we get more cases, I'll offer the whole site for the PDA as a free atlas/reference.

I also have the complete e-medicine ophthalmology website as an iSilo database.

Would you mind putting up these resources for public consumption? I have, and love, iSilo.

Sure, I'll place them in the EyeRounds.org download page next week.

I'll have the dowloads page on EyeRounds.org updated by next week. In the mean time, you may download using links from SDN. I've contacted e-medicine.com to ask permission to post their site as an iSilo database. I cannot post their ophthalmology webpages yet.

Hello-

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is iSilo?

And more importantly- is it free and where do you get it from? :D

Hello-

iSilo is a program that allows you to view HTML files on the Palm OS or PocketPC PDAs. It allows you to convert a website into a PDA database with search functions and hyperlinks. The graphics are great too. iSilo is able to display hires photos.

You can download a demo here. After 30 days, you can still use it, but you won't be able to view hires photos. All the databases I posted are readable, but the EyeRounds.org files will not display photos.

If anyone has any shareware or non-copyrighted Palm/Pocket PC ophthalmology programs/references to share, then please send them to me, and I'll make them available for download.

I received an e-mail from Jon Adler, MD (Chief Medical Officer) of e-medicine. I cannot offer their ophthalmology archive as a free download because they offer a similar thing for $49.00.

If you want to create an e-medicine Palm Database using Plucker or iSiloX, then you can create it yourself. Go to http://www.isilox.com/ and download the iSiloX application. Follow the instructions to make any website into an iSilo database.
