YESIGHT and DEFECTIVE HEAR-
-4 ING.—The success of Mr. ELIA SOLOMON'S
P TENT SPECTACLES, and a similarity of names favouring the
deception, has induced parties to offer publicly as a new invention,
professing to relieve simultaneously Visioa and Deafness, c.rnmsn
Glasses of many years' standing, ground on the principle of the Pe—
riscopic Lens (the Meniscus employed fur Spectacles forty years ago),
and :rhich are highly injurious to the sight These quack and ab-
surd misrepre.sentations, unsupported by weight or authority, might
have been safely allowed to pass unnoticed before the eyes of a dis-
cerning public; but as the names of some medical gentl•men arc
used, it behoves one to inquire by what means, or on what grounds,
their signatures have been ot,tained (if obtained at all) as sanctivieng
a direct untruth by proclaiming such as " Newly-invented Spectacle
Lenses," which are unanswerably nothing more than co:lnen
glasses, of a pink or purple tint, to be purchased at the above estab-
lishment, at Is. tid, per pair.
Mr. E's. VOICE coNDucTorts for DEAF PERSONS hate
been e cinently successful in the most extreme cases of defec ire
hearing ; are worn unperceived, being constructed on a smaller scale
than any hitherto offered, measuring only one quarter of an inch in
diameter ; possess the peculiar power of conveying the slightest
sound with accurate distinctness, affording at the same time the
greatest case and a,sistance in all cases of Deafness.
TESTIMONIAL; on the PATENT SPECTACLES of Mr. ELIA
SOLO NIONS, 36, Old Bond.street, nearly opposite the Western
_Exchange.

From Sir Anthony Carlisle, F.R.S., President of tho Royal College
of Surgeons, and Senior Surgeon to the Westminster Hospital, .tc.
Mr. Elia Solomons' Spectacle Lenses seem to me likely to afford ad-
ditional aids,to imperfect vision, and because of their superior re-
fracting powers to glass or other dense materials, they promise to
affords ew resources for the constructi,,n of Spectacles
ANTHONY CARLISLE, F. R. S Langliarn.placo.
From Dr. J. Johnson, Physician Extiaordinary to the late King, &c.
I have been using and am still using Mr. Elia Soloinons' Amber
Spectacles, and find them to: re pleasant to the Eye than any other
glasses which 1 have

tried.
From Bransby Cooper, Esq., F.R.S., Surgeon to Guy's Hospital, &c.
From the use I have made of a.l Amber Lens, ant cf.mparing it
with those in ordinary glasses, I have no he,itationin saying that, to
my sight, the former is infinitely preferable, in being less trying to
the Eye.

RR ANSBY COOPER, 2, New-street, Spring gardens.
I am much pleased with Mr. Elia So!onions' Amber Lenses, and a
Gentleman who made trial of them for several days says that they re-
lieve the Eye much more than any Glasses he has before us,d.
MARTIN WARE, New Bridge-street.
I have examine .1 the Ainbee Spectacles made by Mr. Elia Solomons,
and lamof of inion that they are c lculatad to answer c cry purpose
for which they are intended—that they so!ten the light to weak and
irritable Eyes, and arc likely to be useful to p rsons whose sight is
thus affected—being preferable to Glass or Pebbles.
.1. COPE!. AND, M.D., F. R.S , Bulstrode-st., Manchester-sq
F om E n czarninati,n of the Amber Lenses I have every reason to
conclude tlytt they po seas many and decided advantases over the or.
denary Glass Spectacles..
