From natural defects and the unequal range Of
my eyes, have been compelled to use glasses for
several years. i have tiled different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted to my
eyes. -Four months since sIr. 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 n1nutel to the eve
l most cheerfully recommend Mr.. Tobias to all
having occasion 10 use glasses ant bear my testi-
mOny as to his skill as an optician.
