From natural defects and the unequal range of
nv eyes, have been compelled to use glasses for
several years. / have tiled different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted to my
eyes. Four months since Mr.. Tobias made two
pairs especially for me, which have found to
serve me perfectly. BY the use Of his optometer
he is enabled to adapt Glasses infinitely to tae eye
most cheerfutly recommend Mr.. Tobias to all
having occasion to useglasses, and bear my test
Ho1y as to his skill as an optician.
