In his doctoral thesis, Schubert researched the history of the historical glass eye archive of the Eye Clinic of Rostock University Hospital, which comprises 132 pathologies. The story of the glass eyes blown between 1860 and 1880 is the subject of a doctoral thesis written in the last five years. The glass eyes were manufactured 150 years ago to visualize eye diseases by glass blowers from Lauscha and documented the research work of the Department of Ophthalmology at the University Hospital.
