?ifi Gofi said, "Let there be light" Genesis 1:3
Blindness Gan Be Licked!
by William F. McDermott
roAM krause, a refinery worker, handles molten lead
at his job. One day a bit of the white-hot metal
splashed up in his face. Instead of striking him in
the eye, it splattered against the lens of his protective
goggles, leaving his sight unharmed.
"How wonderful to see you again!" he said to his
family that night. And he really meant it.
Krause is a member of the Wise Owls, who have
saved 20,000 eyes their own from injury and possibly
blindness. The Wise Owls are industrial workers in
plants throughout the United States, Canada, Hawaii,
and Puerto Rico. Each one gained membership by
protecting his eyes against accidents.
Tody 334,000 Americans are blind and 750,000 others
are threatened with blindness.
"Half of those now blind could and should have their
vision, today," explains Dr. Franklin M. Foote, president
of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness,
"and half of those threatened could be saved."
Dr. Foote says that one-fourth of America's 32,000,000
school children need eye care, with serious eye damage
possible if they're neglected. Also, sight trouble often
causes educational and psychological handicaps,
including poor reading, he points out.
"Children's eyes are growing and changing with the
rest of their young bodies," he explains, "and they need
good care. Parents should be encouraged by the fact
that most childhood eye defects can easily
be corrected with glasses."
An alert parent can easily spot signs of eye trouble ;
in Johnny or Susie: does he or she blink continually;
hold book too near or too far; change distance
frequently; shut or cover eye at times; tilt head to one
side; often lose the place while reading; have headaches,
dizziness, aversion to light?
"If so," Dr. Foote says, "take him to a good eye doctor
at once. Also, give him a professional eye examination
when he starts school, and yearly thereafter."
Youngsters are very susceptible to accidents which
may cause eye damage, even blindness. Since 100,000
children's eye accidents are predicted for 1958, the
Society for the Prevention of Blindness makes these
recommendations: parents should not allow children to
use such "playthings" as air rifles, bows and arrows, or
slingshots; communities should provide adequate
facilities for supervised play; and contests should be .
held to stimulate safety-consciousness among children.
A major handicap to adult vision is glaucoma, which
affects 1,000,000 Americans though half of them don't
realize it. Glaucoma injures the eyes by building up
pressure within the eyeball, and in many cases it causes
blindness. But it needn't. Vigilant eye care
can prevent it, and treatment can control it.
In fact, vigilance must be our watchword in the battle
against blindness, the National Society says. That battle
can be won if each of us joins the sight-saving crusade.
What do you have to do? Just give your own eyes good
care, and those of your family; then help others, at
work and at play, to protect theirs.
