It was natural for us to state the two questions that preceded the genesis of this book and that the reader, too, is entitled to ask himself before acquiring and reading this book. Why two of the co-editors of this book that deals with an ophthalmological area are dermatologists? What exactly is the part of the ocular system explored in this book and what is the contribution of in vivo confocal microscopy to the study of this area? We will answer the last question first for the purpose of clarity. This book studies that part of the ocular system, which we will define as anterior, i.e. all the ocular structures with immediate access to the simple inspection of the eye and the touch, a definition that is more dermatological than ophthalmological. This, in our opinion, is what makes this book so original because this part of the eye is on the border between dermatology and ophthalmology. Although there ar
