Excerpt from Practical Observations on the Formation of an Artificial Pupil, in Several Deranged States of the Eye: To Which Are Annexed, Remarks on the Extraction of Soft Cataracts, and Those of the Membraneous Kind, Through a Puncture in the Cornea, Illustrated by Plates
I drew up a few observations on the modes of forming an artificial pupil, adapted to the different states, to which the eye may be reduced by disease. A desire, however, to attain such a degree of experience, as might enable me to speak, with confidence, of the results of different operations, has been the principal inducement to delay, till the present time, the publication of what I deem to be, in a great measure.

He describes the various techniques he developed to address different corneal opacities and adhesions, including cases where the crystalline lens or its capsule was also opaque.
