Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To review the history of the growth in knowledge about the corneal endothelium. METHODS: Publications concerning the corneal endothelium were reviewed. RESULTS: Highpoints in the growth of knowledge about the corneal endothelium include discovery of barrier and pump functions, specular microscopy, reduction in surgical trauma, corneal preservation, and future advances. CONCLUSIONS: The highpoints in the history of the growth in knowledge about the corneal endothelium were elucidated.
