THE CANADIAN STATESMAN. BOWMANVILLE. ONTARIO Education1 And Efficiency C. H.Tuck OPtomeh4s <opp. P. 0.) Number 100 Closing one eye may also be founti ta exist where each eye separately was perfectly normal as regards vision, but when the two eyes were open the vision was blurred or double. In same cases where the vision was double the eye or eyes turned and wben the ane eyc was used single vision was faund. This bcing the most natural was insisteti upan. There is a correction for this case wlth- out an operatian. See yaur Op- tametrist and discuss it with him. In the case cf blurred'vision wben bath cycs were open but gocd vision with each eye singly, we have an example cf improper fusion cf images. An cramination cf your eycs should disclase the reason for this and its correction sbould not be delayed. 'In. znany cases it is followed by the turrxing cf the eyes. Naturally if the error is to be correcteti, its correction will be ail the easier if taken in its early stages. This aise aftcrds less discomfort andi expense ta the patient as wcll. It would be con- sidered a timely termination cf this condition to correct it when its earîy symptcms were reccg- nized. ta be continucti) EARLY MORN IN AUTJM Theres something 'bout the early morn 0f autumin that bas charm, Its quietness, its eastern glow, Have such a welcome, warmn.
