Of the Crystalline Lens and Cataract (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Excerpt from Of the Crystalline Lens and Cataract

Before entering on the more immediate subject of this essay, the author has felt it incumbent on him to consider the crystalline lens in its natural or healthy state, that, from a knowledge of its strue ture, the changes to which it is subject might readily be understood: nor has he considered it foreign to his subject to draw attention to the iris, intimately connected as is this membrane with the opaque as with the transparent lens.

Opinions, at variance with those taught in the schools, have here been promulgated, both as re gards the iris and the pupillary membrane; this being, however, fairly disputable ground, they have been stated without compunction, and so fully as the present essay would admit of.
