Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of ophthalmology and cataracts, with a focus on the work of Dr. G. Pieller de Quengsy. It traces the evolution of surgical techniques for treating cataracts from the Middle Ages to the 18th century. The author explores the prevailing theories about the nature and causes of cataracts, highlighting the debates between those who believed cataracts were caused by a thickening of the lens and those who believed they were caused by a hardening of the lens. The book culminates in a detailed discussion of Dr. de Quengsy's pioneering work on cataract surgery, including his development of new instruments and techniques that greatly improved the success rate of the procedure. This book is an important contribution to the history of ophthalmology and provides valuable insights into the development of cataract surgery.
