Abstract
Article (226) high court & article (32) supreme court – Indian penal code-applicable to all specialties. International court of justice only deals with land disputes. So, this presentation is needed to arrest further spread to younger generation. AIOS is second largest society in the world registered under society Act in the constitution of India. Are we justified in learning and also teaching knowingly non-precise / incorrect medical terms to younger generation without even mentioning misnomers and in turn making them habituated? Under article 226 (high court) & 32 (Supreme Court) in the Constitution of India-Grievance. Our solution is to change or to teach misnomer along with the word. For the past 10 years, the same concept was being projected to the world as ‘Questionable medical terms in Ophthalmology’. As some of our AIOS governing council (2013-14) defended as lack of law and not authorized to opine on, retired judge was being consulted and the title is changed with law details as ‘Grievance in literature Ophthalmology-our solutions’. Retrospective study of ophthalmic literature shows for the last more than hundred years, incorrect medical terms like ‘retinoscopy’, ‘syringing’, ‘retinal detachment’, ‘intracapsular cataract’ has been in existence. Phaco emulsification came approximately 28 years ago, 10 years ago small incision cataract surgery and 5 years ago computer vision syndrome. These less precise terms are being added to the medical literature during our own generation. No attempt has been made in the past even with appeal to restore precision and greater accuracy to the terminology in current use. Perhaps none took cognizance of the problem or the need for such correction was not taken seriously. It is unethical that evidence based incorrect medical terms are being published in all scientific journals. Even with appeal, knowingly publishing incorrect medical terms in scientific journals and passing on to innocent younger generation is grievance. At present evidence based science is kept on the desk of chairman, ethics committee, and international council of ophthalmology for consideration after relooking. Law is applied to all sciences. Ophthalmology is the starter of the procedure. Global parliament in Ophthalmology is needed in this concern.
