In the old days when knowledge concerning the working of the Human Eye was quite small, it was generally believed that age only brought on the need for wearing glasses.

Weak eyes demand the assistance of proper lenses. People must have effective, efficient vision. If this cannot be secured through natural faculties the deficiency must be supplied by prop erly fitted lenses. We are perfectly equipped to cor rectly measure your defects of focus and prepare from the facts lenses which will correct all defects and enable you to secure the comfort of efficient, natural vision; and at the same time make the glasses becoming.
