From natural defects and the unequal range OF
my eyes, have been compelled to use glasses for
several years. L have tried different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted 10 nv
eyes. -Four months since Mr.. Tobias made two
pairs especially for me, which have found TO
serve me perfectly. Bv the use Of his eptometer
ne ID enables to adapt Glasses infinitely 70 the eve
I most cheerfuily recommend Mr. Tobias 10 ali
having occasion to use glasses and bear my testi-
mony as to his skin as an optician.
