h'ye examined and am now using pair OF the sryssa
mniscuS glasses purchased of Prof Gedeon They
constructed upon strictly philosophical principles and from
several considerations not surpassed equalled by
any L have ever seen. -Et
The form of the lenses resembling the
anterior arrangement Of the human eye collects larger
number Of rays than could be conveyed upon the
from ordinary glasses of the focal power and thus in
the dsnctness Of vision The size of the glasses
also gives greater field of vision with less muscular
ton In Short the whole arrangement admirably
calculated to promote ease and dstncncss of vson
preserve the healthy function Of that invaluable the
human eye
