In the 75 years  history of All India Ophthalmological Society  Dr. Ittyerah is the second person from the Kerala state  to receive the   life time achievement award of this national organisation of eye surgeons.

when I joined at Little flower hospital in the year 1975, Angamaly was a small village with a relatively large mission hospital  having a hypertrophied ophthalmic department.The growth rate of eye department in the following years  were much more than the growth of other departments. All the directors were very keen to get other departments also grow at the same speed as ophthalmic department.But the disproportionate growth continued and many persons were unhappy about it.The hospital had almost all major departments functioning fairly well.But often people called it as 'Angamaly Eye hospital' since eye department under Dr. Tony Fernandez was  attracting  patients from all over India and abroad.I am indeed happy to work in this hospital at various capacities  under  different directors  contributing to the growth and prosperity of the department and the hospital.

                           'Happiness from the bottom of the heart'
Several times rejected paper ( Is there an alternative to ageing and death?) was finally  published in the journal of American geriatric society in 2010. Failure is the real stepping stone to success! Many other failure (error) stories which  were rarely  discussed and exposed, were  presented during  the oration (untold experience) by the author of 'eye doctor out of the box'. From errors and mistakes  we learn a lot.

 To err is human ............ Do  gods commit errors? what are miscarriages and congenital anomalies?

 According to evolutionary developmental biologist  Sean B  Carroll " Look around you at all the beauty,  complexity, and variety of life , we live in a world of mistakes, governed by chance" 

The most important failure story in human physiology/pathology seems to be cancer!I feel that cancer is an error of asexual reproductive in humans. There are several sexual reproductive errors in humans. And errors like molar pregnancy donot have an embryo.

Today , 4th Feb. is cancer day.  Here are Some lateral thoughts on Cancer. Cancer is considered to be  growth for the sake of growth (growth disorder). The fact is that  we do not know the real cause for growth . Because of the life threatening nature of growth  we destroy the growth ,(the sign of life)- to get cured from cancer. There is a strong possibility that this growth is aimed at multiplication of the organism . But due to some developmental error  and lack of required genes this does not happen (atavistic defect) . If we can transform growth , wonders can happen. Details in Why cancer? ISBN:9781370190973.

Rose flower is a failed attempt for sexual reproduction. Do humans have failed attempts for reproduction?

Reproduction is a very important function of an organism. Living organisms have different methods for reproduction, broadly classified as sexual and asexual reproduction. In certain organisms  both sexual and asexual reproduction are working and effective , while in some other organism one method of reproduction is working while the other method is present but not effective.( Rose plant). We all know that humans have sexual reproduction  but fertility rate is reducing day by day due to various reasons. Do humans have a non effective asexual reproductive process? Eye doctor out of the box says yes!

  Why should  growth, a sign of life kill humans?It is reported that a new drug combination ABVD not only suppressed  cancer growth ( asexual reproduction) but also enhanced ovum production in women (Journal of human reproduction). Besides this  recent publications in Preventive medicine  states that cancer risk increases with mental tension in young men and BMJ states cancer risk increases with depressed state of the mind. In both situation sexual reproduction reduces considerably, as in old age  resulting in compensatory increase in  asexual reproduction. Growth is either for repair or for  increase in size. Other reason for growth could be only for reproduction.  Details of the links between cancer and reproduction is available in Why cancer?ISBN: 9781370190973.
