Ocular Therapeutics by
Excerpt from Ocular Therapeutics: With Illustrations This work was originally delivered in the form of clinical lectures during the years 1877-8 to the students and practitioners, both French and foreign, who attended Professor de Wecker's well-known clinique in the Rue du Cher die Midi. The lectures were at the time reported verbatim by Dr. Masselon, the Chef de Clinique and afterwards revised and amplified by the Professor himself, and published as a whole. They will, it is hoped, be followed by the translation of a similar volume recently published and dealing exclusively with Ocular Surgery. The reception which these lectures have met with in France has been most satisfactory; they have been translated into Italian and Spanish, and will shortly appear in German. In spite of the many able treatises which exist on Ophthalmology in the English language, it is believed that there is ample room for a work like the present. While intended primarily and chiefly for practitioners of general medicine, it will also, it is hoped, in many respects be found not unworthy the attention of specialtists.
