PICTURE THEATRES AND EYES.
The progress made in the character of subjects presented in the picture theatres to-day makes it desirable for all inquiring people to at least attend occasionally. Annoying after-effects on the eyes of many prevent them from enjoying the social diversion, and often the educational advantages thus derived. The great majority of those who suffer from eyestrain after watching moving pictures, can find much, if not complete, relief in perfectly fitted glasses. The picture may not be quite so sharp, but this is more than compensated for by the increased comfort. For those with very sensitive eyes, a coloured glass, either amber, yellowish-green or amethyst, may be necessary to give complete relief. There have been put on the market recently several varieties of coloured glass, each of which has some advantages, so that some suitable colour can usually be secured. A subdued light in the theatre is much less irritating than when the only light visible comes from the screen.
