Questions You Need to Answer
CAN YOU SEE CLEARLY?
How do you know that you see as clearly as you
ought to da? Your sight may never have been
perfect hence you may not realize its deficien
cies. CAN YOU SEE A LONG WAY?
This is often a symptom of defective sight of the
defect Long Sight, to be precise.
DO YOU NEED MORE LIGHT?
This is one of the symptoms of old sight which af
fects most people over 40 years of age.
HOW NEAR DO YOU HOLD YOUR THINGS ?
If you need to hold things nearer to your eyes than
14 inches, your eyes are probably wrongs ' .
r WHICH EYE WORKS?
One of your eyes may be more powerful than the
other! That is why if you wear any Glasses you
should have them specially adapted to your own
particular needs.
i DOES YOUR HEAD ACHE?
Are you troubled with headacheparticularly to
ward the end of the day ? Many of the most rack
ing headaches are caused by eyestrain correct
Glasses are the only permanent remedy.
ARE YOU EVER DIZZY ? P
Dizziness or Vertigo sometimesSiappens in acute
cases of eyestrain.
ARE DISTANT OBJECTS DIM?
This is a common sign of defective sight.
DOES SMALL PRINT "BLUR"?
In reading your newspaper or book do the letters
"run into one another." . This indicates thai your
sight is wrong.
DO YOU HABITUALLY FROWN?
A habit of knitting the eyes together is onef the
consequences of eyestrain. It is v an attempt of
ten unconsciousto concentrate the vision.
HAVE YOU EVER STRAINED A MUSCLE?
If so, you know how painful it is. The only cure is
rest. Eyestrain is strained eye-muscles, and the
only way to rest them is to remove the cause with
compensating Glasses.
DO YOUR EYES EVER ACHE?
Aching or smarting is only possible in defective
eyes. So long as they remain perfect, they cannot
ache.
ARE YOUR EYES WAGE EARNERS?
j Is your occupation one which demands keen vis-
ion i it so, mat is an unanswerame argument in
favor of caring for it now, so that the progress of
any existing defects may be arrested.
CAN YOU BE OVER-ANXIOUS ?
In view of all the blessings of good vision, is it pos
sible to be too careful of it? If your sight is per
fect, so much the better but while you remain in
doubt, you may be laying up future regrets.
WHY DO YOU HESITATE ?
Surely you now realize that you know very little
as to your eyes condition. We can tell you after
testing why not come now.
ARE WE CAPABLE?
Our equipment is of the most modern kind. Our
experience has been long and varied, and has fitted
us to deal with .the many forms of Optical Defects.
IS OUR ADVICE UNBIASSED?
We could not afford to risk our reputation upon
anything but the strict truth. More than that, if
we advise the wearing of Glasses, we prove to you
the reason why they are necessary.
WHAT IS THE COST?
If Glasses are found necessary what will they
cost? Our prices vary (according to lenses and
frames needed); but are very reasonable.
For many years they have served you well do
they not deserve a little care? Then there is the
question of preserving the sight for the future
isn't this a sufficiently grave matter to induce you
to take care?
It Is Time You
Attend to
YourEyes
For many years they have served you well do
they not deserve a little care? Then there is the
question of preserving the sight for the future
isn't this a sufficiently grave matter to induce you
to take care?
SOME WONT ADMIT
even to themselves the possibility that their eyes
may have become defective ; but surely it is better
to investigate the state of the sight scientifically,
and thus to be enabled to avoid the serious conse
quences in which neglect may result-
MAN MAY WORK
and by his skill build up a reputation so that he
is termed "a good man," He may work long and
well so that his eyes suffer somewhat from the
strain; should he then thoughtlessly neglect these
early troubles, his sight will inevitably become
SERIOUSLY DEFECTIVE
and the quality of his work must undergosteady
deterioration. Thus the reputation of a lifetime
may be ruined in a very short time perhaps nev
er to be regained. Yet if the worker would only
care for his sight not waiting until serious symp
toms develop this loss' of earning power would
never take place.
STRAINING THE SIGHT EVERY DAY
There are some occupations which impose an es
pecially heavy tax upon the eyes; and workers un
der these circumstances should be especially care
ful to preserve their vision, especially as they arc
directly dependent upon it for the earning of a
livelihood.
DANGEROUS TRADES
A "black list" of occupations dangerous to the eyes
would certainly include all industries demanding
close attention (particularly in poor light). Here
are some kinds of employment which aggravate
eye-defects:
Needlework
Henchwork in Factories
Drawing and Painting
Clerical Work.
HEADACHE
- i
is now becoming known as usually a result of
strained eyes. Almost invariably, when suitable
Glasses are obtained, ir permanently disappears.
OUR EXPERIENCE IS YOUR SECURITY
In an eye-difficulty, get our advice; we can help
you, if anyone can.
Every ca.c rrceive the same careful attention ir
respective of hew much or how little you intend
to spend. We do our utmost evr ry tizna, and gord
results are guaranteed.
