This he blamed civilization for, saying that man in bis normal condition was far sighted. He made a number of exam inations amoog Indian children, which showed that they are far sighted-, and it w as also the same in the case of nu merous animals subjected to a similar examination. He gave the cause for this near-sight edness smong the civilized nations that the children were put to school too eilrly and the work was too hard on the visual organs.
