When riding on the train it is
very annoying to find that when
you glance up from yonr book or
paper to view some particularly
interesting bit of scenery. your
reading glasses blur the land
scape and you either have to take
them off and strain your eyes to
see or else put on a pair of dis
lance" glasses.
This difficulty can be overcome
by wearing a pair of our double
or invisible bi-focaI glasses. They
combine both near and far vision
in one lens and are a delightful
revelation to those who have been
using two pair of glasses.
