ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Both National and State Optom-
etry Associations have outlined
q 81 point eye examination as
necessary standard. Our optical
schools educate their graduates
up to state boards require
ments.
If it takes 21 point to be a
average 4 or point is not an /
examination at all but just
preliminary to selling a pair Of I
glasses.
; Anyone could learn in a couple
Of weeks to use the instruments
to know the meaning Of the
things seen for q correct dag.
nosis requires long years of
hard study and experience.
= A two or three point examination
by a school nurse does no harm
lieve that children with the
worst eve strain are perfect.
For over thirty years we have
, given each patient from IL to 20 4
, point examination before CIV
Ing glasses. The summing up
ways equals pair Of glasses
to neglected eyes.
All optical people know this IL
true but they sAy-"Why do
more than At vision when they
won't wear correct glasses?"
Eyes with refractive errors ef-
feet health exactly as sadness
effects health. Vision test glass
