Irus, 'opticians, examined my vision to day, and i bura much pleasure in testifying to the accuracy with which he determined the proper glasses for me to wear. Ilis method of. Oxamination is a very ingenious and e- curate one, and by it he should be able to asrtain the proper glasses for the cor rection of all the errors of refraction met with in the eye.

Surgeon-Mejor G. C. Ha, in charge of the Eye Hospital, Allahabad, says :—I have tested your Pulent Refraction Teat, and find it remarkably good and accurate, and I think it should prove very usoful, de all who are called upon to trest errors of refraction, specially Astigmatism, which is ED common and yet so frequently over- looked:

De BEAUMONT, F.R.O.S., M.D., R sidency Surgeon, Hyderabad, says —Mr. Lazarus has shown me his method of testing the eyes of persons whose vision is de fective, and I consider that any one requir- ing Spectacles may depend on being care fully fitted by him.
