Excerpt from The Bakerian Lecture: On the Mechanism of the Eye
Gottingen in 1796, and also in an Essay presented last year to this Societyxf About three months ago, I was induced to resume the subject, by'perusing Dr. Porterfield's paper on the internal motions of the eye 1' and I have very unexpectedly made some observations, which I think I may venture to say, appear to be finally conclusive in favour of my former Opinion, as far,as that opinion attributed to the lens a power of changing its figure. At the same time, I must remark, that every per son who has been engaged in' experiments of this nature, will be aware of the extreme delicacy and precaution requisite, both in conducting them, and in drawing inferences from them; and will also readily allow, that no apology IS necessary for the fallacies which have misled many others, as well as myself, in the application of those experiments to Optical and physiolo gical determinations.
