&I+commendation
Eyestrain causes headache,
weak, tired and aching eyes,
Other things may give relief
but perfectly adapted glasses
are the only eure.
The most important thing
about a pair of glasses is the
SKILL of the specialist who
fits them.
If I cannot help you, I say
so. If I can I do thoroughly.
Satisfaction guaranteed with
every pair of glasses. I supply
advice free.
