TACLES may be adapted to the various circumstances of indivi-
dual cases appertaining to defective vision. Whilst these Specta-
eltg eseel all others, as regards their very superior refractive pro-
perty , and their comparative lightness, they possess the further ad-
vantage of modifying bright and strong light, which, at the same
this, is Olonimitted through the various humours of the eye, so as

tant recommendation of being FREE from the pernicious attributes

kles admirably adapt, them to afford ease and comfort, by protect-

decided and instantaneous relief that art can accomplish. Their
IpPerior efficacy is attested by the following eminent professors, who
