SCIENCE AT WORK
New York -1U.R) A veteran
in the general practice of medi
cine confesses that one of the
oddest things he now knows,
which he .didn't know .-whea he
was a 'young medical graduate,
has to do with the way people
show their . neurotic symptoms
in their eyes.
When he' was .a very young
idoctor, said Dr Edward S. Gif
f ord of :: Philadelphia, he sent
people who came to him , with
eye complaints to an eye spec
ialist. In due course the eye dic
tor told him the patients needed
or did not need glasses, or they
had a little chronic conjunctivi
tis or whatever,' and he thought
that should settle the matter.''
But in many cases, . it didn't
The' patients kept right on com
plaining of eye fatigue, or head
aches after reading, of itching,
burning, and too much watering,
of fear of light, and light flashes
and spots before the eyes.
"I did not know then what 1
have many occasions; to realize
now," he said. "The eye is the
most common site of neurotic
symptoms when they tare' "local
ized mainly in one part o E the
body.", x-
The Eyes Hare It .'
: ; It should be kept in mind that
in speaking of "neurotic symp
toms" he referred to emotional
processes of which - the individ
ual is not conscious. They result
from conflicts buried in the un
conscious segments of the mind
consciously, the individual is
convinced firmly that his symp
toms ' have purely ; physical
Causes. " -:;- :- :;5' - ,;,,.
- Dr. Giff ord cited medical sta
tistics which indicate that 31 per
cent of the patients of general
practitioners, have "emotionally
induced illness s without struc
ture changes" in their bodies.
The : proportfon 5 probably4, was
even higher among the patients
of eye doctors, he said. His con
clusion was , that "the emotion
ally upset patient has a special
tendency to focus attention on
his eyes."-"- ,-: i

themselves -to those small, -annoying

tinue for years, limiting activity
with the fear of eventual blind
ness and baffling the attending
physician," he added. "They
cling to glasses of small optical
value, or f of 'no optical value
whatsoever, as if a - pair of
glasses were ' a shield : behind
which a frightened mind .might
hide and, if greater protection is
needed, resort to tinted lenses."
The Sex; Factor -:
' He pointed to the important
part played by ; vision in emo
tion. "It may be that those who
would normally, derive much of
their sexual satisfaction from
visual courses are prone to ocu
lar symptoms when' nuerotic,"
he suggesterd. "In our civiliza
tion where lip service is paid to
a tradition of puritanism and
every effort is made to evade it,
mental conflict and guilt are in
evitable - for; those who - cannot
make the necessary adjustment.
"Visual stimulation is the
daily occurrence of ordinary liv
ing. Advertising art; commercial
moving pictures and television
programs, present-, the seductive
female figure, the rugged mascu
line features and, the, inviting
situation to millions.''. '.
His advice to other general
practitioners, in the official or
gan of the American Academy of
General Practice, was "to take
the neurotic patient seriously
It is unfair to accuse him of en
joying his suffering. The neurotr
ic symptoms represent attempts
to escape neurotic anxiety, and
the neurotic anxiety is the more
painful." ...
Geiger Counters Hunt
Dirt on Navy Dishes
v Bayonne, N.J. J.R) The
Navy is using Geiger counters to
"prospect" for dirt on dishes. ,
In a laboratory . experiment
here, - Navy technicians mix ra
dioactive . isotopes with " food
placed on Navy, dishes, and. trays
and- run them "through' various
dishwashing " machines, soaps,
detergents and water - tempera
tures. V 'i
The Geiger counters thus can
tell which method does the
cleaning job quickest.
