I confess that in the first health-improving groups, we practically did not pay attention to vision problems. I was more interested in restoring the joints, heart and spine, getting rid of renal and hepatic colic, normalizing blood pressure. As they say – who hurts.
There is a version that whales die not from old age, but because of the fading of vision. And not just whales. Whether we like it or not, the quality of life is directly related to the condition of our eyes. It is not surprising that over the years, the true value of vision for all people increases rapidly. And that’s understandable. Like it or not, hearing and vision are the two most important channels for perceiving the world. Without them, no human development would be possible. And it’s not only development that matters here, I have already mentioned the quality of life, and it is sight and hearing that allow people to simply enjoy life. Hearing is music, voices, a sea of all sorts of harmonies. Thanks to vision, we enjoy natural landscapes, paintings by great artists, fall in love, study, acquire professions, escape from dangers.

Nevertheless, science did not stand still, Taylor’s baton was picked up by Jacques Devial, who was the first to learn not to displace the affected lens, but to remove it from the eye altogether. Instead of a puncture, he already made an incision, using more skillful tools. In any case, the number of unsuccessful operations dramatically decreased. By the way, today’s ophthalmologists also work according to the Devial method.
Another iconic name is Hermann von Helmholtz (1821—1894), a German physicist, doctor, physiologist and psychologist. In addition to multiple discoveries in the field of physics, this unique scientist studied the features of human hearing and vision. In 1850, he invented the ophthalmoscope, a device for studying the fundus of the eye, and in 1851, the ophthalmometer, a device for determining the radius of curvature of the cornea. He also figured out how to measure the curvature of the lens of the eye, one of the first formulated the theory of accommodation of the eye. It is difficult to list all the achievements of this man, and it is not surprising that many research institutions have been given his name.
