The Ocular Heritage Society is an organized forum for the study of ophthalmic history and artifacts. Membership varies from ophthalmic practitioners, those from the ophthalmic industries, antique collectors and dealers, hobbyists, researchers and museum professionals. So If your interest is antique spectacles and eyeglasses, ophthalmoscopes or other eye-related antiques, you will find others with similar interests in the Ocular Heritage Society. An annual meeting of Ocular Heritage Society members provides an opportunity for the presentation of research, stimulation of interest in new topics, tours of sights of ophthalmic interest, displays and an exchange for ophthalmic artifacts. There are usually tours of museums with major collections of ophthalmic-related antiques, and members often are allowed to examine artifacts that are not on public display. Whether your interest is professional, collecting, or research - the Ocular Heritage Society is the place for you!
