Abstract

AbstractStamp collecting is one of the world’s most popular hobbies. Many collectors limit their scope to particular countries or themes. For obvious reasons I chose to collect stamps related to ophthalmology. Searching for them and learning about their back story has been a pleasant way to discover parts of the heritage of ophthalmology. I will present photographs of a selection of my stamps introducing our forerunners, showing famous ophthalmologists, ophthalmologists who chose a different path and well‐known blind people, representing eye diseases and aids for blind, and commemorating important congresses.
