History dates back to the ancient days of Sushruta and even before Hippocrtaes, and it is captivating to know about the cataract surgery, and how it hardly differs from the modern technology. The word ophthalmology comes from the Greek roots \u1f40\u03c6\u03b8\u03b1\u03bb\u03bc\u03cc\u03c2, ophthalmos, i.e., \u201ceye\u201d and -\u03bbo\u03b3\u03af\u03b1, -logia, i.e., \u201cstudy of, discourse\u201d, ophthalmology literally means \u201cthe science of eyes\u201d. Perhaps, it is one of most developed subject in medical field at current situation, providing cure even for the blind people from the birth.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, we are still in the preliminary stage regarding the history of ophthalmology in Nepal, although \u201cReaching the unreached\u201d by Dr Ram Prasad Pokhrel provides enormous information to some extent. Hence, it would be an immense help from our fraternity, who could provide and share their experiences regarding the subject matter. This would be a great contribution to the future generation in the years to come. There is no doubt, though, we lack proper evidences of our ancient eye history, the services that we are providing is in parity with the developed countries and this is definitely a matter of pride for all of us.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Established in 1985, the Nepal Ophthalmic Society has been one of the leading <span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); font-size: 1rem;\">\u00a0&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58aae4d elementor-align-right elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"58aae4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nos.com.np\/s\/about-nos\/\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon elementor-align-icon-right\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-arrow-alt-circle-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Read More<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-17aa724\" data-id=\"17aa724\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e4a61f elementor-aspect-ratio-169 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"0e4a61f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/embed\\\/grnE0WlfeZg?si=W6nEn4F1Cpkd8xno&quot;,&quot;start&quot;:8,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;aspect_ratio&quot;:&quot;169&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!
