title: [Ophthalmologists on postage stamps. A contribution to the history of medicine].
abstract: An attempt should be made to summarize the history of ophthalmology in a small series of postage stamps. Eighteen stamps could be dedicated to themes recalling the achievements of famous ophthalmologists. In this way it would be possible to acquaint the public with some medical history while at the same time encouraging an interesting leisure pastime.
