Excerpt from Lessons on the Eye: For the Use of Undergraduate StudentsIt should be the purpose of a medical school to provide its graduates with an equipment which will best meet the demands of general practice, and I recognize that there is enough matter to fill the course to over¿owing, that is of more importance than the layers of the retina or the formula for calculating the index of refraction of a transparent medium.The only claim to originality made for this work lies in its omissions. Minute anatomy, the fitting of glasses, Skiascopy, Ophthalmoscopy and kindred subjects have been left out intentionally, as I believe they belong to post - graduate instruction. I have also slighted those diseases which have to be diagnosed with the ophthalmoscope, as I doubt the diagnostic value of an ophthalmoscope in the hands of the average practitioner.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
