An eye blister is a benign growth which can appear on the whites of the eyes or on the cornea itself. There are two main types of eye blister: pinguecula and pterygium.
Before x ray machines were invented, broken bones, tumors and the location of bullets were all diagnosed by physical examination and a doctor's best guess. Patients paid the price of these approaches. Then on November 8th of 1895, a German physics professor Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen made a remarkable discovery.
Medical Use of X-rays The most important application of the X-ray has been its use in medicine. This importance was recognized almost immediately after Roentgen's findings were published in 1895. Within weeks of its first demonstration, an X-ray machine was used in America to diagnose bone fractures.
