Many things are said and written about famous ophthalmologist Albrecht von Graefe. This work gives detailed description of the places where he lived and practiced ophthalmology in Berlin, because very little was written about it and never in one paper. Von Graefe was born in 1828 in villa Finkenherd in the north-west part of Tiergarten in Berlin. He lived in Behrenstrasse, one of the fashionable streets in Berlin, where he began his ophthalmological practice in 1850. Later, in 1852 he founded a famous private eye clinic in Karlstrasse 46 where he treated numerous eye patients and educated many prominent ophthalmologists and surgeons. Several times he had changed his residence addresses. Among other places, he also stayed in Unter den Linden Avenue and Bellevuestrasse near Potsdamer Platz. In 1868 he became the head of the eye clinic in the Charité Hospital. Since then he lived in a spacious house on Viktoriastrasse until his death in 1870. Although Albrecht von Graefe lived only 42 years, he travelled a lot, but most of his life he spent in the city of Berlin. Graefe made many contributions to ophthalmology being considered the "father of glaucoma" and the nestor of modern ophthalmology.
关于著名眼科医生阿尔布雷希特·冯·格拉费，人们有诸多著述。本文详细描述了他在柏林生活及从事眼科诊疗工作的地点，因为此前相关记载甚少，且从未有过一篇文章对此进行全面阐述。冯·格拉费于1828年出生在柏林蒂尔加滕西北部的芬肯赫德别墅。他居住在柏林的时尚街道之一——贝伦街，1850年在那里开始了他的眼科诊疗工作。后来，1852年他在卡尔街46号创办了一家著名的私立眼科诊所，在那里他治疗了众多眼科患者，并培养了许多杰出的眼科医生和外科医生。他曾多次更换居住地址。除了其他地方，他还曾住在菩提树下大街以及波茨坦广场附近的贝勒维街。1868年，他成为了夏里特医院眼科诊所的负责人。从那时起，他一直住在维多利亚街的一所宽敞房子里，直到1870年去世。尽管阿尔布雷希特·冯·格拉费只活了42岁，但他游历广泛，不过他一生的大部分时间都在柏林度过。格拉费对眼科做出了许多贡献，被誉为“青光眼之父”和现代眼科的元老。
