As we enter the quantum era, new research on applying the rules of quantum physics to biology, which was previously considered impossible, has revolutionised our understanding and our concept of molecular and atomic particles behaviour and their interactions. This book presents a comprehensive review of the quantum biology of the visual system. Chapters discuss the relevance of quantum physics to the biological systems, especially in the visual system. The main purpose of this book is to simplify quantum biology concepts relevant to physiology of human eye and to help the reader understand the essentials of this new emerging, complex and anti-intuitive field of science. It offers a contemporary view of the emerging interplay between the biochemistry, physiology, molecular biology, and molecular and atomic particle quantum characteristics such as vibration, spin etc.

About the Author: Kambiz Thomas Moazed, MD After graduation from medical school, he completed a year of research fellowship in eye pathology at the department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University Hospital in CaliforniaUnder direction of Dr. Peter Egbert. He then completed a year of residency in General surgery at Stanford University, at Stanford medical center in California.He then followed his interest in ophthalmology and completed another year of fellowship in eye pathology at Harvard medical school department of ophthalmology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary Under direction of Dr. Daniel Albert. He then completed the ophthalmology residency program at the Harvard University at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and was graduated in 1982. Dr. Moazed has received his Board certification from the American Board of Ophthalmology in 1983.He then completed a year of fellowship in ophthalmic plastic surgery, orbital surgery and lacrimal duct surgery at Edward Harkness Eye Institute at Columbia University under the direction of Dr. Stanley C. Cooper. Then he became affiliated with Columbia University in New York City and became associate clinical professor at Columbia University and was in charge of teaching residents in eye pathology and ophthalmic surgery at St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital centers in New York for 25 years. At the same time period he became the director of oculo-plastic surgery and orbital surgery at Harlem Hospital under affiliation to Columbia University for 15 years. He has received a patent for his invention of the laser tear duct probe and tear duct insert, and has been one of the pioneers in introducing laser assisted Lacrimal duct surgery for tear duct obstruction. He has received another patent on eye color modification of the iris and currently working on 3 other patents on the latest approaches to modify human eye color. He started to collectall the knowledge that he has collected in the past 35 years in a book that is titled "The Iris, Understanding the Essentials" The book which was published by Springer Publishing company in August 2020.Dr. Moazed has over 30 years of surgical experience in NYC. At present he is an active surgical attending at Manhattan Eye and Ear and Throat Hospital and at Mount Sinai Roosevelt/St. Luke's Hospitals.
