This annoys the brain and the eye will strain unconsciously to bring about a clear focus. Ti.;s strain usually causes headaches. As* tigmatism is usually congenital or so at birth it is remedied by wearing glasses ground from the segment of a Cylinder; these glasses, it" rightly made bring images to a focus on the retina and this relieves all strain. Children as well as adults Buffer from astigmatism. I am pre* oared to correct all common or complicated errors of sight. My examinations are free. Room 8 and 4 Enterprise B'ld'g. Office days.
