Conclusion | The development of the subspecialism Orbitology got a great flight in the seventies with fellowships,Congresses and the start of an international orbital journal and Society. Prof..dr. G.M. Bleeker of Amsterdam was one of the most important founders of these topics. I found however by reading the papers of prof.J. van der Hoeven of Leiden, that already in the forties he published clinical educative papers, and research done by his team, in this ophthalmic field .But after his retirement this knowledge was vanished in Leiden en Holland. Examples of this research will be presented. |
