Abstract
The eyes have fascinated scholars for millennia from anatomy and disease to the process of vision. However, establishing the origins and timeline of discoveries is difficult as texts have been lost in wars and disasters. Greek luminaries such as Aristotle and Galen laid strong foundations which the Arabs built upon, keeping the candle of knowledge burning in the Middle Ages, a time when Europe was in darkness.
