Synopsis

Excerpt from The Ophthalmoscope: Its Mode of Application Explained, and Its Value Shown, in the Exploration of Internal Diseases Affecting the Eye

MY apology for reprinting this fragmentary Essay on the Ophthalmoscope - which I read before the Medical Society of London, last session, and which subsequently appeared in the pages of the Lancet, 1857 -is, shortly, that I believe the instrument destined to Open out a new era in ophthalmic medicine; and that, by the publication of 'this treatise, I may assist in diffusing among the profession a knowledge of its practicability and usefulness in the diagnosis and treatment of some obscure forms of eye disease.

I am, sensible of many short-comings and imperfections, for which I crave indulgence nevertheless, I trust what I here present to the notice of the profession will prove of some value, and as generally illustrative of the use of the instrument in clearing up embarrassing points of diagnosis, and in detecting the earliest indications of change in the delicate tissues of the eye. And thus, when aided by the light of physiological and pathological science, we may find a sufficient stimulus to renewed exertion, which will ultimately reward us with success.
