Imagine it’s 1583. Your vision is failing. The cure? A surgeon is going to take a silver needle and push the cloudiness inside your eye downwards. 👁️ No anaesthetic. No antibiotics. Just "couching". It didn't cure the cataract, but it let the light back in. #eyenews #EyeHistory

Throwback Thursday! The first contact lenses were made from glass in 1887! Now, we have advanced materials like silicone hydrogel. #EyeHistory #ContactLenses #VisionCare

For nearly two centuries, people have believed that ancient and medieval authors had the wrong idea about the position of the crystalline lens. But is it true? 👀👇 https://t.co/rkM3Edom35 #eyehistory #medicalhistory
