  • Title: Ancient Egypt to modern ophthalmology: via Otago, New Zealand.
    Author: Coster DJ.
    Journal: Clin Exp Ophthalmol; 2009 Nov; 37(8):810-3. PubMed ID: 19878228.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this report is to document the contribution of two New Zealanders, Barrie Jones and Rowland Wilson, to the development of modern ophthalmology. Their related contribution was made over a period of 80 years; it began in Egypt with Wilson, developed when they worked together in Dunedin and where they created the foundations for the brilliant career that Jones was to go on to in London. Their story emphasizes the impact of teaching and mentorship. It highlights the extended reach of teaching and the power of continuity in research.
