From 1705 to 1708 the French Royal Academy of Sciences studied the question of the origin of the blindness by a glaucomatous crystalline lens or by an opaque membrane. The analysis of the proceeding registers of the Academy permit to understand the evolution towards the revision of the century-olds concepts concerning the anatomical position and nature of cataract, the vocabulary and the concept of cataract surgery by couching.

W latach 1705–1708 Francuska Królewska Akademia Nauk zajmowała się zagadnieniem pochodzenia utraty widzenia w przypadku jaskrowych zmian soczewki oraz obecności nieprzejrzystej błony. Analiza archiwów tej instytucji pozwala zrozumieć ewolucję poglądów na temat patogenezy zaćmy obejmującą położenie anatomiczne i naturę zaćmy, terminologię oraz zasady operacji zepchnięcia zaćmy do komory ciała szklistego.
