Having been fourteen months Resident Physi-
clan Of the Wills Hospital for diseases Of the Eye
in the city of Philadelphia, the oldest and most
celebrated Institution Of the kind in the United
States he fatters himself he will be able to give
entire satisfaction to all who may consult kim.
He has had ten years. experience in the treat
nent of Diseases Of the Eye, since leaving the
Wills Hospital, and knows, from actual expert
ence that he can Treat Successfully all Diseases
of the Eye that are Durable, and nearly all are,
whether requiring - -
|. MEDICAL OR SURGICAL AID.
The public are aware that Physiciahs general
" pay but little attention to diseases of the Eye,
having never had the opportunity or time to &C.
quire thorough theoretical and practical knowl-
edge Of this class Of diseases, and consequently,
they cannot hsexpected to treat them as satisfac-
torily as one Hho has kad'hoth.
am well aware of the objettions in the popu-
lar mind to advertising, because this has been
heretofore practiced by foreigners and pretend
ers in Science, whose only object has been to de-
ceive and humbug- as native of this ceun-
ty, well known to most Of the citizens, with ana
kneWlsdgs Of W. 81
and enlarged experience in treating Eye Diseases
PRACTICALLY, Tthink lean demonstrate my fitness
for this speciality to all who may extend to me
their patronage. Persons afflicted with
DISEASES OF the EYE, =
Of long standing, and who. have been subjected to
various modes of treatment WITHOUT RELIEF,
should not be discouraged, rs it often happens
that those cases having been sadly neglected or
badly treated are sfss
MOST READILY AND RAPIDLY CURED,
although it must be admitted, as general rule,
the longer the duration Of diseased condition,
the longer the time required for its eradication.
It is needless to speak of the value Of sight
those only can properly estimate lis advantages
whs are unfortunately deprived of it.
REMEMBER, there are some in every communi-
ty, and many il the Blind Institution of this
place, who have been either partially or totally
deprived Of their sight on account Of delayed
or unskillful treatment.
D3r Artificial Eyes furnished and Inserted on
reasonable terms.
n@- Patients frsm distance should come pre-
paredto remain at least WHILE if it is consider
ed necessary in order to treat their success
