SPECTACLES. 7.. BLINDNESS.

܂

VISION is justly described as the most important of our senses, and its losy is re- garded as one of the greatgat aillirtions to which mankind is subject.

It is, therefore, of paramount importanos that we should carefully use our sight whilst parfect, and that when, unfortunato- ly, the help of Spectacles is felt to be ne- cossary, the utmost care should be taken in the selection of them.

The late orainent Oculist, Dr. Soolbarg Wells, testified that he had no hesitation in stating that the haphazard plan of sales- tiar Spectacles-employed by saw Opti- ciane-was frequently attended by serious consequences; that eyes were often per manantly injured, which might, by skifal adaptation of glosses, have been presorved for year.
