The eye has fascinated scientists from the earliest days of
biological investigation. The diversity of its parts and the
precision of their interac tion make it a favorite model system for
a variety of developmental studies. The eye is a particularly
valuable experimental system not only because its tissues provide
examples of fundamental processes. but also because it is a
prominent and easily accessible structure at very early embryonic
ages. In order to provide an open forum for investigators working
on all aspects of ocular development. a series of symposia on
ocular and visual development was initiated in 1973. A major
objective of the symposia has been to foster communication between
the basic research worker and the clinical community. It is our
feeling that much can be learned on both sides from this
interaction. The idea for an informal meeting allowing maximum
exchange of ideas originated with Dr. Leon Canbeub. who supplied
the necessary driving force that made the series a reality. Each
symposium has concentrated on a different aspect of ocular
development. Speakers have been selected to approach related topics
from different perspec tives.
