In 1792, a priest in Germany consulted a young doctor about a buried corneal foreign body hidden in a small, hard mass that partly covered the pupil. During removal of the foreign body, the doctor inspected the corneal incision with a microscope to confirm the suspected presence of the foreign body. This may be the first use of a microscope in eye surgery.
1792 年,德国的一位牧师就一个埋藏的角膜异物咨询了一位年轻医生,该异物隐藏在一个小而硬的肿块中,部分覆盖瞳孔。在取出异物时,医生用显微镜检查角膜切口,以确认异物的可疑存在。这可能是显微镜首次用于眼部手术。
