This book is a story book about the eye. After some 60 years in eye research and clinical work in ophthalmology there have been many instances, where I remember patients and their problems, a book I read or a place that I traveled.

None of the chapters are meant to be clinical reports; all are stories and I have tried to keep the text understandable.
