BLIND MADE TO SEE.
BY Means of TRANSMISSION of Vhreoas
Humor From a Rabbits Eye.

There are six people in Hamburg
whose eyesight has been restored by
Professor Deutschmann through infu-
sion from the eye Of living rabbit
Upon one of these patients the opera
ton was tried successfully on both
eyes. These persons were all nearly
blind when operated on.
AS described by the assistant of PROT
essor Deutschmahn the new operation
is as simple as it is startling. Professor
Deutschmann does not attempt to re-
place diseased retina, nor does he claim
that he can substitute the retina from
rabbit for that of a human being.
At the same time he does not hesitate
to operate on the retina itself by max
ing such missions through it as may be
necessary to assure the success of his
process He has found that blindness
frequently ascribed to disease of the
retina is in reality often caused by a
detachment of the latter.
Such detachment and shrinkage OF
this delicate membrane result from alb
sorption Of the yitreous humor which
constitutes nearly nine-tenths OF the
body OF the eye itself. This vitreous
kumor is inclosed in sac, making
what is commonly called the eyeball,
and through it the image passes from
the lens to the retina.
The latter is retained in place by the
full rounded body Of the sac Of vttreous
humor. When this vitreous humor
loses it's normal volume through absorb
ton the retina stretched around 1t
shrinks, having no support of its own,
and thus the sight Is finally destroyed.
The great discovery which Professor
Deutschmann has made is that the de-
ficiency of vitreous humor in the human
eye can now be supplied from the eye
of living rabbit.
The TRANSMISSION IS accomplished
through simple rubber tube. Before
this is done, however, the most delicate
kind of eye surgery is necessary. CO.
caine is first administered to the eye OF
the patient to be operated upon. This
is for the purpose of rendering it in
sensible to pain.
The operating surgeon then cuts into
the sac Of vitreous huMor in the eye
of his patient with a steel canula. This
cuts through the sclerotic, through the
choroid and through the retina
The eyeball of the patient is turned
down so as to expose as much of the
top surface as is possible. The cut
ting is done from the top, in a place
that is never seen under normal con
ditions.
An assistant holds live rabbit, and
with a steel canula he cuts deep into
the sac of vitreous humor in its eye,
which almost exactly corresponds with
the eye Of the human being in its con-
struction and texture
The eyes of the rabbit and patient are
then brought as close together as pos
sible. A small rubber tube is introduced
into both missions, being pushed deep
Tito the sac of vtreous humor in either
case
A gentle pressure of the finger upon
the eye of the rabbit is then sufficient
to pump the vitreous humor into the
rubber tube and thence into the humor
sac of the patient. In less than min
ute the reficient quantity of vtreous
humor can be made up from the eye
of the living rabbit.-New York Journal.
