There exfrts an em>. neons idea, that when onoe glasses are adopted, they can't be discontinued. Su^h is only a fact when non-professionals are resorted to. Dondebs, who is acknowledged to be the highest authority on the science of opttcs, says in his treatise on the rcfrafe-
tion of the eye :~" So far from short-sighted-ness improving in advanced life, as^is popularly believed, it is too frequently a progressive affection, and every progressive Myopia is threatening with respect to the future, inasmuch that if not checked in due season by the aid of Suitable Glasses, the vision will be irrevocably lost. Spectacles or eyeglasses, if injudiciously selected, usually aggravate the evil they are intended to remedy. Therefore, an oculist of reputation should always, if possible, be consulted as to the choice of them. " He further states, in reference to long-sighted people, "that Presbyopia, or weakness of sight, is as natural a concomitant of advanced life as grey hairs or wrinkles. It is occasionally met with in young persons, and may be the precursor of Amaurosis, hence such cases Bhould be carefully watched, and the advice of an oculist regarding the cnotCE of spectacles is well worth his fee." Mr S. will shortly issue a small treatise on the different defects and diseases of the eye. Mr SOLOMON, the inventor of the Optometric apparatus, is the only man in existence of whom the warranted pure Brazilian Pebble Spectacles and Eye Glasses, optometricallv guaranteed to the precise focus of sight, are obtainable.- Mr SOLOMON'S Consulting Rooms are at Johnson's Private Family Hotel, Mackay street. — Advt.
