carelessness, will abuse their eyes by
subjecting them to cheap dark
glasses. There Is no way Of estimat-
ing how much harm Is being done
by this fashion fad, but doctors say
that 1t Is considerable. The wearing
Of dark glasses every time one goes
out in the sun has q tendency to
make the ewes oversensitive to light.
II continued over q long period, this
weakness increases.
HAVE GLASSES GROUND
The home nurse should teach
her family that It Is just as import.
ant to have doctors advice about
wearing dark glasses as about
glasses to correct q vision defect.
II he advises dark glasses at all, 1t
will probably be only for rare oc-
casions Of extreme exposure, such
as O day on the water, or the glar-
ing sand Of the beach.
When dark glasses are required
they should be prescribed by the
doctor, and fitted to the eyes Of
the individual. Unless they are
Of a special quality Of glass, they
may actually interfere with vision.
Those who wear glasses habit
ually to correct a vision defect;
should have dark glasses ground
by the same prescription, so that
they may never be without their
correction. This Is especially i'm
portant for those who drive cars.
Car drivers should never wear
dark glasses at night to avoid the
glare Of headlights, as they are
certain to cloud the vision to
some extent, and may cause an
accident.
