Eye Glasses Should Go
Says New Tork Physician.
Here Is Hfs Free Prescription.
"Many who wear glasses could dis
pense with them. Only ordinary care
is necessary. Tho eyes of old and
young should be properly bathed night
and morning. This is more important
than cleansing teeh," says ho and
then ho goes on to say:
'The" following treattaent is worthy
of fullest confidence. It is scientific
immediately effective and positively
hurmless to the weakest of eyes. Go
to any drug store, get a tubo of Optona
tablets, dissolve one in a two-ounce
bottle of pure water and bathe the eyes
two to four times dily. What is gen
erally known as eye strain will soon bo
banished while the muscles and nerves
are permitted to perform their normal
functions. It helps diseased eyes and
it keeps good eyes healthy; it is ab
solutely harmless in every way; does
not smart or burn, has a wonderful
effect on granulated lids and is espec
ially recommended for dull, bleary or
glassy eyes. , It helps all eyes and
should bo in every homo for use in an
emergency." -
The following extracts are from let
ters received from users of this pre
scription: "I used Optona one week for a
cold in my eyes; it did me a great deal
of good."
"My eyes have been failing for
years. I am sure Optona is doing them
good and shall' continue its use."
"Have only been using Optona a
short time.
My eyes are improving j
wonderfulh'."
"I find Optona very satisfactory end
recommend it whereevcr I find an opportunity.-
I find it very soothing."
"I've been benefited by Optona and
intend to follow the treatment."
"Have been using Optona for about
three months and it lias greatly im
proved my sight."
"My eyes have been sore for sev
eral years; were red and inflamed.
Used everything recommended and
gained no relief. I had my eyes ex
amined and wore glasses for six
months. I read of Optona and thought
I would give it a trial. Am glad to be
able to state I got satisfactory relief,
and have not worn glasses since. I
feel my eyes do. not require them."
Many others have made similar re
ports. If your eyes bother you, have
thn above prescription filled; it may
do wonders for you. bo not become
s victim of neglect. You perhaps value
your eyes more than any other organ,
therefore it's your duty to protect
them. This free prescription has given
