Wonderful Art of the Eye: A Critical Edition of the Middle English Translation of His De Probatissima Arte Oculorum
Benvenutus Grassus

Although little is known of the author, Benevenutus Grassus, he seems to have roamed Italy in the early thirteenth century as a medical practitioner specializing in diseases of the eye.
