Excerpt from Baltimore Journal of Medicine, 1861, Vol. 1 What then is the Object Of Coremorphosis? Under what conditions should it be practised? How, and when? Each Of these questions will be severally considered, and as this is the last of our meetings wherein the operative surgery Of the eye will be considered, I hope that I may make it as plain to you as its importance merits. However important every branch Of our profession is in reality, and however acumen and finesse Of discrimination are required for their practical uses, nothing calls forth a cooler judg ment and a steadier hand than does the medicine and surgery Of Ophthalmology; and in recalling this fact for your consideration, I do it in order to predicate an equally important one, viz: the necessity Of absolute correctness in diagnosis - of which, in the particular subject now under consideration, we shall speak hereafter.
