ABSTRACT
Fragmentation of medicine in different specialties has developed knowledge concentration in the art of curing diseases. This is the story of ophthalmology along time, where ten subspecialities have been formed to treat eye diseases. This has led at the same time, to the building of eye hospitals dedicated exclusively to the diagnosis and treatment of problems that affect vision and structures related to the visual system. In 2021, Conde de Valenciana Eye Institute will celebrate its 45th anniversary of constant growing, which represents a national pride as an example of solid success of teamwork in Mexican medicine. In the present time, the fusion of Conde de Valenciana Eye Institute and ABC Medical Center represents a world class ophthalmology service to our population.REFERENCES
