WHERE the mind is without fear and the head is held high (in OPD’s, rounds, OT’s) Where knowledge is free (conferences, symposiums, internet) Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls (zones, institutions vs individual, govt. v/s pvt.) Where words come out from the depth of truth (in free paper sessions, articles) Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection (in our work) Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way (Duke Elder, Kanski…) Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit (routine of OPD-rounds-OT) Where the mind is led forward by thee (God who gave us the opportunity to give sight) Into ever-widening thought and action (think and reach beyond routine clinical work) Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country (us ophthalmologist) awake. Dear friends, The relevance of the above poem is timeless and for everyone whichever occupation we may be pursuing. It is just a reminder that we must get out of our routine and think towards becoming better and more accomplished in our work and our duty of serving the patients for which we are here. Let us resolve to give our best towards the care of our patients…. The result of course is always out of our hands. This is the penultimate issue of the Delhi Journal of Ophthalmology with yours truly as the Editor and I must accept that despite the challenges of bringing out the journal regularly with a content that is somewhat accurate, interesting and scientifically sound, my period as editor has been most enjoyable and fulfilling.
