Headache from Eye.strain.

Dr. Weir Mitchell has been inves'igat-
ing tho causes of headache and among
other conclusions. presents the follow.
ing, viz: hat there are many headaches
which are due indirectly To disorders Of
the retroactive or accommodative appa-
ratus Of the eyes; that in these instances
the brain symptom is often the most and
sometimes the sole prominent symptom
Of the eye trouble, so that while there
may he no pain or sense Of fatigue in the
eye. the strain with which IL is used may
he interpreted solely by occipital or
frontal headache that the long contin-
uancc Of eye trouble may bc the unsus.
ted cause Of insomnia. vertigo, nausea.
and general failure Of health and that
in many cases the eve trouble becomes
suddenly mischievous, owing to some
failure Of the general health or to in.
creased constituencies OF the brain from
moral or mental causes. Cases are cited
by DR.. Mitchell in support Of his theory
on this subject.
