H. Bishop) I Ninety per cent of the blindness in | this country is preventable. There I r.ve about 300,000 blind dependents in the United States. About one-| sixth of these are blind on account of the germ that gets into babies' eyes at birth through lack of proper precautions. When the eyes are washed immediately after birth by the physician or nurse, with a one per cent solution of silver nitrate, the danger ol eye Infection and blindness is eliminated. The majority of the 250,000 people in this country, blind from other causes, would now be enjoying good sight if they had taken ordinary com- I mon sense precautions. Serious de- I Eects in vision, for instance,- may I start from apparently simple inflam- I nations of the eyelids or the watery I nembranes- of1 the eyes.i I Bloodshot %es, inflamed eyelids ind styes ^re'^ frequently found as- I iociated with eye strain an<f even I :aused by it. I Readjng and studying should be I lone under proper lighting not I right enough to strain the eyes, nor pet too dim. The light should come I rom above and behind, preferably B ver the left shoulder sp as to facili- fl ate writing. . H Wiping one's face on a common H oiler towel is the source of many I angerous eye diseases that are ^ atching. Diseases known as glaucho- ? la, trachoma and "pink eye" are the $3 ommonest forms of such ailments, g iflammation is generally a, first lj fmptom of eye trouble and should ra ave the immediate attention of a ^mpetent eye physician. ' ; Often when one feels that he needs ? lasses or treatment the question g rises whom to consult. An oculist is a physician who mak- @ ; a specialty of the eye. . , An ftifitirian ia nno rinf nVitrci/M- Si -w V..V, W*V*- |U i, who deals in optical instruments a ich as eye-glasses., . / An optometrist is one, not a phy- s cian, trained to examine" {he eyes S ; an optical instrument and deter- g ine its optical defects. He should ra i oompetent to determine such de- ? cts. m Among the common forms of eye ' ifects that can usually be remedied ' glasses are far-sightedness, nearfhtedness and astigmatism.
