Welcome to The Ophthalmologist January/February. This issue's cover feature sees Farhad Hafezi and Mark Hillen rethinking the eye's interface with its microbial environment - from microbial scarcity to immunological significance. Also, Eleonora M. Lad discusses the employment of multimodal imaging for the early detection of macular telangiectasia; Alfonso Vasquez-Perez outlines the advances in osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis (OOKP) in the UK; and we sit down with Moorfields Eye Hospital's Professor David Gartry to look back on his "truly blessed career."
