Wilhelm Uhthoff
Wilhelm Uhthoff (31 July 1853 – 21 March 1927) was a German ophthalmologist born in Zurow, Klein-Warin. In 1877 earned his doctorate at the University of Berlin, and later became a professor of ophthalmology at the Universities of University of Marburg, Marburg (1890) and University of Breslau, Breslau (1896), where he succeeded Carl Friedrich Richard Förster (1825–1902). Uhthoff specialized in the study of ophthalmological disorders that were related to the central nervous system. In 1890 he described a condition of temporary vision loss linked to physical exercise, and associated with optic neuritis. This condition was to become known as Uhthoff's phenomenon, and was later found to be caused by a rise in body temperature. In 1915 he published a treatise titled ''Augensymptome bei Grosshirntumoren'' in which gave an early description of a neuro-ophthalmic disorder that was to become known as Foster Kennedy syndrome. However, the disease was to be named after Robert Foster Ke ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ophthalmology
Ophthalmology ( ) is a surgical subspecialty within medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. An ophthalmologist is a physician who undergoes subspecialty training in medical and surgical eye care. Following a medical degree, a doctor specialising in ophthalmology must pursue additional postgraduate residency training specific to that field. This may include a one-year integrated internship that involves more general medical training in other fields such as internal medicine or general surgery. Following residency, additional specialty training (or fellowship) may be sought in a particular aspect of eye pathology. Ophthalmologists prescribe medications to treat eye diseases, implement laser therapy, and perform surgery when needed. Ophthalmologists provide both primary and specialty eye care - medical and surgical. Most ophthalmologists participate in academic research on eye diseases at some point in their training and many include research as par ...

Arthur Groenouw
Arthur Groenouw (27 March 1862 – 1945) was a German ophthalmologist born in Bosatz, a village near Racibórz, Ratibor. He studied medicine in University of Breslau, Breslau, and was an assistant to physiologist Rudolf Heidenhain (1834–1897) and ophthalmologist Wilhelm Uhthoff (1853–1927). In 1892 he was habilitated for ophthalmology in Breslau, and in 1899 attained the title of professor. In 1890 Groenouw described two different types of corneal dystrophy, of which he wrote about in an article titled "''Knötchenförmige Hornhauttrübungen''" (noduli corneae). At the time, he believed that the two types were variations of the same disease. Later on, his findings on corneal dystrophy were classified as two separate syndromes: * "Granular corneal dystrophy type I, Groenouw Type I": Granular type of corneal dystrophy. Characterized by discrete grey opacities scattered over the surface of the cornea. * "Macular corneal dystrophy, Groenouw Type II": Macular type of corneal d ...

People From The Grand Duchy Of Mecklenburg-Schwerin
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of pe ...
