ABSTRACT
Background: In Mexico among physicians it is common to use the term “bus’ diagnosis” to mean one that can be done only at looking someone, thanks to knowledge, experience and a bit of imagination. As a special privilege, ophthalmologists are able to do specialty diagnosis in some pictures of famous painters, then “museum’s diagnosis”.
Methods: An aesthetic and historical research conducted for years provided the material.
Results: We present herein some examples of portraits made bay Sharaku, Georg Groz, Il Bronzino, De la Tour, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Reynolds, Remedios Varo, Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Ingres and others.
Conclusion: The “museum’s diagnosis” enhance interest and aesthetic pleasure. Art could be useful as a tool for teaching clinical Ophthalmology
