This
is a relatively old object related to eyes
and vision. Unlike some antique objects
which can date back thousands of years,
some eye antiques, like ophthalmoscopes,
can only date back about one hundred and
fifty years. This is because the first
ophthalmoscope was invented in 1851.
Other objects, like spectacles, can go
back hundreds of years to when glasses
were first invented. Eye surgery
instruments and printed materials can span
the centuries as well. There are large
numbers of fascinating objects related to
man’s most precious sense, vision. Here
is a sampling of them. Please enjoy your
visit. |
