Are you wearing lenses that are not satisfactory? If you are
having trouble with your eyes, it will pay you to come direct to
me. I will give your eyes a thorough and careful examination
free of charge and tell you the exact condition they are in.
I Fit Every Conceivable Style of Spectacles and Eyeglasses
Dr. Behrend is now introducing the late Kryptoc Invisible
bifocals and Toric Lenses, which is without doubt the finest len3
ever put on the market. Perfect fitting glasses, ground especially
for the weak eyes, astigmatism, near-sigh tedness. far-sightedness,
reading or fine work.
We especially solicit complicated cases. Our experience often
enables us to give satisfaction where others fail. -
My glasses cure headache, neuralgia, nervousness, tired eyes,
aching eyes, styes, granulated lids, bloodshot eyes, etc,
Remember that our responsibility does not end until you have
obtained the satisfaction you expect.
Parents Should Not Neglect Their Children' Eyes
For a pair of glasses worn for a few months will enable a
child's eyes to strengthen and fully develop, while neglect at this
critical time will so injure the eyes as to make it necessary, sooner
or later, for them to put on glasses and wear them continually.
