DISEASES AND INJURIES
OF THE EYE.

DIR. W. j. DAVIDSON, of Stanton, Va,
Gives special attention to the treatment of Disea-
ses and Injuries of the Eye.
Having been fourteen months Resident Physician
of the Wills Hospital for Diseases OF the Eye, IN
the city of Philadelphia, the Oldest and most cell
ebrated Institution of the kind in the United
States he fatters himself he will be able to give
entire satisfaction to all who may consult him.
He has had ten years. experience IN the treat
ment Diseases of the Eye since leaving the Wills
Hospital and knows, from actual experience, that
he can Treat Successfully all Diseases of the Eye
that are Curable and nearly all are, whether re-
curing MEDICAL or SURGICAL AID.
The public are aware that Physicians generally
pay but little attention to diseases of the Eye,
having never had the opportunity or time to &C
quire q thorough theoretical and practical knowl-
edge of this class of Diseases, and consequently,
they cannot be expected to treat them as satisfac-
torily as one who has had both
am we'll aware of the objections in the popu-
lar mind to advertising, because this has been
heretofore practised by foreigners and pretenders
in Science whose only object has been to deceive
and humbug-but as native of this county, well
known to most of the citizens-with ample OPP
portunites and facilities for acquiring a knowl-
edge Of OPITHALMIC SURGERY, and enlarged
experience in treating Eye Diseases practically,
think | can demonstrate my fitness for this speci-
ality to all who may extend to me their patron
age. Persons afflicted with Diseases of the Eye,
of long standing. and who have been subjected to-
various modes of treatment, wuhoutreliet, should
not be discouraged as it often happens that those
very cases are MOST READILY AND RAPIDLY
CURED! Although it must be admitted, as a
general rule, that the longer the duration of dis
eased condition, the longer the time required for
its eradication
1t is needless to speak of the value of sight
those only can properly estimate its advantages
who are unfortunately deprived ofit.
Remember there are some in every community
and many in the Blind Institution of this place.
who have either totally or partially lost their
sight on account delayed or unskillful treatment
