TELEPHONE 1161 .324 "TORiC" (CURVED) "SPECTACLE LENS:--:" Many people (especially of the gentler sex) hesitate to wear ' glasses, even when needed, because they fear to spoil their personal appearance." ■'•>.; ■ This prejudice against glasses was, doubtless, justified some years ago, far the spectacles then made were very often heavy, cumbersome and unbecoming, as well as only-partially successful m correcting .sight defects. ; ' >.■;■' ','' ; ■ '". '■ Nowadays, however, spectacle-making Has been^i^ugh^tqiOne,, art, and those who require glasses hay6;np fear ; of dieir;personal appearance being spoilt by the new rimless "Toric" lenses, in which Mr Walter J. Watson now specialises. ! ' " : 7 t r In addition to the many scientific advantages they possess over old-style "flat" lens?;, "Toxic" or curved lenses are the most beautiful and becoming made, anoV far from spoiling the } eX^ressbii 'of wearer's face, they often enhance its beauty. ~ y c„.^,. r .U, ....,;**,:. ,: V :, It is part of Mr Watson's expert service to or mounting of every pair of glasses made by him is exactly suitable to the individual features of his client.. The same thought and care, and the same careful fitting, are necessary with glasses as any other article of apparel, such as shoes or hats —in fact, doubly so, for the eyes are without doubt the most noticeable feature of the face. Recognising this fact, and also that 411-fitting glasses are never efficient, Mr Watson has made a special study of the perfect fitting and adjustment of glasses—a very important factor to their becoming appearance.' An invitation is extended through this medium to all who are interested in the subject, to call on Mr Walter J. Watson at W. Watson and Co., Ltd., Jewellers, Colombo Street (near Kincaid's), when he will be pleased to demonstrate the superiority of "Toric" lenses, both in appearance and inefficiency, over the old-fashioned "flat" lenses of the past.
