Monr• Solomon's Spectacle Lenses seem to me likely to afford ad-
uitial aids to imperfect vision, and because of their superior
refracting. powers to glass or other dense materials, they promise to
afford new resources for the construction of Spectacles.

pr®m the use I have made of an Amber Lens, and comparing
it tho se m ordinary glasses, I have no hesitation in saying
t att° coy sight, the former is infinitely preferable, in being less
rYlng to the Eye.

IGI am much pleased with Mr. E. Solomons' Amber Lenses, and

used

MARTIN WARE, New Bridge-street.
iI have examined the Amber Spectacles made by Mr. Solomons,
ce I am of opinion that they are calculated to answer every pur-
er which they are intended—that they soften the light to
wilak and irritable Eyes, and are likely to be useful to persons
°a, sight is thus affected—being preferable to Glass or Pebbles.

ba_ Prom an examination of the Amber Lenses, I have every reason
conclude that they possess many and decided advantages over the
ordinary Glass Spectacles.
J. I'. CONQUEST, NI.D., 13, Finsbury-square.
I have tried the Patent Spectaoles of Mr. E. Solomons, which
' Vuass all the attributes of the best white and coloured Glasses and
ebbles, and are superior to them in magnifying power, lightness,

4lght, in their passage through them to the organs of vision.
