Excerpt from Observations on the Cure of Strabismus: With Engravings
The branch of Medical Science, which relates to the rectification of de formities, may almost be said to have had its commencement within the last ten years. Before that period, it is true that some deformities existing in children were occasionally treated with success. But the true principles of the treatment were imperfectly understood, and the whole subject was overlooked or neglected by the great mass of the profession. And the treatment which was adopted, imperfect as it was, was so entirely limited in its application to.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive exploration of strabismus, known colloquially as squinting, a condition characterised by an unnatural positioning of the eyes, frequently with the pupil turned inwards. In examining its historical treatment, the author discusses the recent surgical advances in its treatment, prioritising the novel and groundbreaking procedure of dividing contracted muscles to correct the misalignment. The book does not neglect to explore the work of previous surgeons and medical thinkers, but it is the innovative ideas of dividing the affected muscles, and the positive results achieved, that take centre stage. The author includes detailed and practical advice on how to perform this operation successfully, acknowledging the work and contributions of Dieffenbach, Strohmeyer, and other key figures in the field.
