The Sun Attacks HERE

Strong, warm sunshine is pleasant to the body but it is hard on the eyes. The la brilliant light causes eye-strain which, in turn, brings headaches and ageing lines. The hot, dust laden atmosphere encourages microbes, and dries up the natural moisture round the eyes, causing ocular congestion and leading to all kinds of cyc troubles.

Optrex eye lotion stops all this, Its regular use prevents. strain, removes dust and germs, streng- thens the eye muscles and keeps your eyes happy and healthy. Optrex is recommended by Doctors and Opticians all over the world.
