Abstract

The historical importance of information on ophthalmological topics by Byzantine chroniclers and historians prompted us to enlarge our researches on this subject. Thus we present 17 various subjects in continuation of our previous article published in Documenta Ophthalmologica, ‘History of Ophthalmology’ (Vol. 5, 121–132, 1992).
