Glaucoma: Gradual Darkness If you're 35 or over, you should know about glaucoma. "Glaucoma is an insidious disease, and accounts for one out of seven cases of blindness in this country," said Virginia S. Boyce, executive director of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. "An estimated two million Americans have the disease and half of them don't even know it." "Nibbling away at vision without pain or noticeable symptoms, glaucoma has often been called 'the Sneak Thief of Sight'," she said. But this is one thief that can be arrested with medication or surgery if it is discovered early enough. Glaucoma cannot be cured and any vision lost cannot be restored, but the sight- destroying process can be halted. A simple, painless test called tonometry that measures pressure within the eye gives early clues to the presence of glaucoma. Increased pressure damages the millions of nerve cells in the eye that transmit the "picture" to the brain. Gradually, and without pain, the field of vision narrows bit by bit, so slowly that the victim is often unaware of the change. If not controlled, all vision may eventually be lost. To those age 35 or over, the society recommends a glaucoma checkup every two years, or if there's glaucoma in the family, every year. A new national attack to accelerate glaucoma control activities across the coutnry has been launched by the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. Under the umbrella of the society's Glaucoma Alert program, fourteen national voluntary, professional and labor organizations are par­ ticipating as members of a National Committee on HEARING AID REPAIR SERVICE 7 days a week 385 4500 Bolgers Drug Store (R ichard Sto l l ) Galucoma Education in a variety of activities on various levels. "Although glaucoma control has been one of our priorities for years, it has been simply impossible for us to locate those afflicted with glaucoma among the enormous and growing population group that is most at risk." Mrs. Boyce said. "We feel that this new campaign can make a tremendous advance."

POET'S CORNER SIGNS OF MY CITY A warning finger, blackened, hollow, dangerous, it used to be a steeple. Ruins make me sad, remind me of the war, of all the people who are dead. A gate that leads to Nowhere, barricaded and surrounded by barbed wire. Cages make me sad. This wall is one of them for all the people on the other side. A lovely building, a symmetrical, at night a symphony in color. Beauty makes me glad.
