EYE STRAIN



It seems to us that the preservation of eyesight should be an important part of tuition in all the schools, from the elementary schools upwards.

Eye defects and diseases are created in the tenderest age by strain and overstrain, by work and overwork, by relentless abuse of the eyesight which is totally unnecessary.

The oculist and optician do very useful work, but far more important than these, are the few individuals who have studied the science of preservation of sight and of the recreation of sight by natural means, by the use of appropriate exercises, rest and various other means, which would be leading us too far to describe at the moment, but which will be dealt with in due course. Inferior eyesight can be normalized and the use of glasses can be dispensed with in thousands of cases, even if the suffering individuals have been accustomed to read only with glasses for years and for decades.
