​We’re pleased to introduce you to the OEPF iBook edition of a classic textbook in our field, Applied Concepts in Vision Therapy (ACiVT).  The popularity of the book resulted in OEPF periodically running out of the print edition, necessitating back orders.  Obviously the new iBook version obviates the need for print runs, and was anticipated in the preface to the Preface to the OEP Edition in 2008 which notes:  “The material in the text will be updated through Internet-based communications rather than new print editions.”
 
International enthusiasts can also buy the iBook and receive it instantaneously, obviating  shipping delays.
 
The iBook OEPF edition of ACiVT is a joint venture of OEPF and Ridgevue Publishing.  Ridgevue specializes in iBook productions with over a dozen optometry-related titles, and is managed by Mark Bullimore, MCOptom, PhD, FAAO.  Dr Bullimore is former editor of Optometry and Vision Science, the journal of the American Academy of Optometry.

The price point of ACiVT in the iTunes store will be $39.99, but the introductory price is $29.99.  https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/id1123475850
ACiVT in iBook format can be viewed on any of the following devices:
  1. iPad with iBooks 2 or later and iOS 5 or later
  2. iPhone with iOS 8.4 or later
  3. Mac with OS X 10.9 or later

​The iBook’s editor, Leonard J. Press, O.D., FAAO, FCOVD, has updated this version through hyperlinks in the original chapters, as well as blogs written specifically to supplement each chapter with added commentary and insights.

Purchasers of the ACiVT iBook can access new versions (currently in version 1.6) as updates are made.  There is no additional fee to download new versions. We expect to add instructional videos of diagnostic and training procedures in the coming months.​

Dr. Press is the Residency Site Supervisor for Vision Therapy & Rehabilitation in private practice in Fair Lawn, NJ, administered by the Southern College of Optometry, and Editor of Vision Development & Rehabilitation, the journal of the College of Optometrists in Vision Development.
