A highlight of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists annual congress is the eponymous lectures. These are given by clinicians and scientists preeminent in their field. Eye is very pleased to bring together a selection of recent eponymous lectures in this web focus. These lectures discuss topics as wide ranging as health care in neglected populations to vision, eye disease and art. The topics are brilliantly discussed and provide a useful summary of the state of the art for the various topics in terms of current research and the next steps towards better therapies and treatments. We hope you will enjoy reading them.
