Sight of undergraduates.

چکیده
indifferent incisions, and in two cases where the iris rose above the knife, the complete iridectomies followed the normal course during convalescence. In assessing the relative merits of the two methods of extraction one must consider two factors: (a) the von Graefe method is simple and quick, and has withstood the test of time and usage in many thousands of cases: its drawbacks are known and its complications understood; (b) the keratome and scissors method, though theoretically preferable, is complicated and takes longer; yet it results in a completely sutured eye which follows normal surgical procedure. With regard to the instruments introduced into the eye, more than two must be used whichever method is employed; the number of instruments should not cause either method to be condemned, and the sharpness of knife or keratome can be no criterion, for before the eye is entered one feels whether the point is satisfactory or not, and it is simple to take another from the instrument rack. The experienced surgeon will be slow to drop a method which has given excellent results in his hands: the tyro will adopt the method on which he is brought up: the indifferent surgeon will remain indifferent whatever technique he attempts. The whole subject, with an emphasis on those cases which go wrong, would form an excellent topic for a major item at one of our Congresses; it is of sufficient importance to warrant a thorough discussion " at the highest level ".
