The orbital lobotomy was a surgery that gained popularity in the late 1940s as a way of treating the most dangerous mentally ill patients in asylums across the country, in fact it won a Nobel Prize for physiology in 1949. But within less than a decade, it was a scorned procedure that was banned in most places. How did it come about? Why was it banned? And how do we make sense of the thousands of lives that were ruined because of it?
