OPTOMETRY


We wonder why people in gener-
al do not understand more about eye
examinations. Thousands of people
who are intelligent enough on most
things will pay high prices for
glasses after receiving no more eye
examination than looking at a card
on the wall through some glasses
dropped in clumsy trial frame and
answering a few questions.
This kind of test in itself is never
correct for dozen reasons. One is
/ that the eye answers the questions
with the muscles in their tired.
cramped, crooked condition that has
become their accustomed position.
Thus they cannot be at all reliable.
A doctor could write you a much
more reliable prescription when Won
are sick from a telephone examina-
tion. Your answers to the doctors
questions concerning your pains
would be much more reliable than
your answers concerning the appear
ance of card on the wall with
cramped eye muscles. Besides. the
doctor has great skill concerning
diseases and their symptoms, but
the card test alone for eyes denotes
little skill.
Why the Optometrist who does
not use dark room for eye exami-
nations is because he is so extreme
ly limited in understanding of the
profession that he should not go by
the name of OptOmetrist.
The dark room of an Optometrist
is any room or part of room shaded
or at least curtained to make it suf-
ficiently dark for the use of the Op-
thalmoscope to thoroughly examine
the inside of the eye ball Also the
Retinascope by both Static and Dy-
manic methods. Also the Phoro-
scope taking ductions Of the strength
or each of the twelve extrinsic mus
cles.
These and other objective tests
that can only be used in dark room
that give all Of the really positive
information on which to base an in /
telligent finding for eye treatment.
Without the above objective dark
room examination school child !
with three dioptres of far sight is
very likely to be given one-half
dloptre or even near sight glass be-
cause of cramped muscles.
1t requires on an average of one
hour for an eye examination. A lit
tie subjective test Of ten minutes in
an open room can do no more than
give see the best" glasses which is
only fitting the manifest condition
knowing nothing about the latent
which represents the cramped.
crooked condition and the most i'm
portant needed correction if you do
not expect to have weak, watery, di-
seased eyes through your older age.
The State of Ohio Standard Opti-
cal examination is just a good prac-
tlcal one such as all should be re-
qulred to pass. Can you under
stand why Optometrists who call
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1922-02-16

themselves specialists will continue
to practice year after year on an ex-
empt or limited license given as an
exempt license by passing an exami-
nation SO limited that any good OPP
tometrist could write it out in thirty
minutes?
The above are just informatory
facts that we believe every one
should understand for their own
good as well as for the betterment
of OptOmetry.
For my reliability and truthful
ness ask any business man in Bever-
|ly, Waterford or Crooksville. Also
the good Rev. Pelt whom you all
know so well. AS to what l know
about Optometry the state of Ohio
gives you that by giving me the
highest license.

seven children, bowed down in deep

one brother to know the pangs of
empty sorrow.
Hers was a beautiful character.
kind, patient and loving mother
Though a great part of her life was
filled with the toll and care of rear
ing large family yet she always
found time to improve her refined
intelligent mind. She read and "a
joyed the best of literature, saw and
appreciated the beauties of nature;
a fragrant flower or golden sunset
were things to be enjoyed She chose
to see the good in people and TO
overlook their faults. She lived iii
a high, pure atmosphere above the

no listening ear with her nor eager
tongue to repeat Her habit at all
times was to speak only good Of peo

During her last Illness, her
thoughts were consideration of those
she was leaving behind. She told
us not to grieve, for she was going
to better place than this. Though
her voice is stilled today, yet by her
life and example, she speaks to US
and will, where'er we go, through

Her loved ones left behind, in
their great sorrow find comfort in
knowing that for her '.There is a
