"Mission Milagro" (the Miracle mission) unleashed a real revolution in the formation and the performance of ophthalmology conceived for «all the people and at no cost». For the purpose of assuring the fulfillment of Sandino commitment of operating 6 000 000 patients from the Caribbean Islands and Latin America in 10 years, based on the efforts of Cuba and Venezuela, a formation program was designed to meet the demands of the historical times and to prepare 1000 ophthalmologists according to the rich accumulated experiences in this field. A descriptive study was made to present the ideas of the Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz about the Miracle Mission and their influence in the changes of the formation of human resources specialized in ophthalmology. This is a written memoir of the new formative model of ophthalmology specialists developed by the Cuban School of Ophthalmology, which began its teaching activities on November 28^th, 2005 and assured the availability of 929 general ophthalmologists with high scientific, research, ethical and moral preparation to respond to the needs of the Miracle Mission.
