We become tired. but wben we give way to this expression.,e generally mean mentally or pby- sicaily tired. but it is also possible for us to become fatigued be- cause our eyes are tired. Don't misunderstand this. It is a com- mon thing to say our eyes are tiebut it is uncommon for us to say that ive are either mentailv or physicaily tirect because our eyes are tired. Visual energy may become exbausted. Is it fot true that the eyes use about twenty- five per cent off buman energy for normal seeing? Add to this a lit- tie f the excessive strain of mod- ern life and what have you? The complete picture may be surmised but is bard to, measure. It takes only a very smail amount of this energy to see one object but when you toLal up the inui- erable objects seen voluntanily and then add to this tbe myriad cf tbings involuntarily viewed or coming into our indirect vision, sTeedy. flasbing. glaring, reflet- ed. ever-moving and really our visual energy is used up f ast.
