The Ophthalmological Society of Melbourne (1899-1913).
Appropriate social and medical circumstances occurred in 1899 for the foundation of the Ophthalmological Society of Melbourne. Bimonthly meetings were held, at which a large number of interesting cases were presented and discussed. The Society suddenly collapsed in 1906, but was revived in 1912 only to disband to become the Eye and Ear Section of the Victorian Branch of the British Medical Association.
