THE FIRST STAGE IN THE MAKING OF OPTICAL LENSES which shapes the Lenses from the rough crystal. Tiw "volutiou of the Commercial spectacle ss in Optometry has occurred within comparatively a few years. _ My experience in the Optical business covers the interim between a purely commercial business, and a highly developed profession. At one time ready-made Glasses were sold over the counter like sugar or tea, while now anatomical, physiological and pathological conditions are all taken into account. An hour spent at my modern workroom would prove both pleasant and interesting. Here can be seen the very latest scientific inventions for testing the eyes, and the making of glasses from the rough crystal. The machine illustrated is a clever invention ior grinding spherical, flat, or toric cylinder lenses from the rough crystal. It is driven by a dynamo, and so accurate that it shaves to the thickness of a cigarette paper. This is only one of the many wonderful machines to be seen in my workroom. It goes to prove that no money is spared to bring my optical business up to the highest state of perfection. This machinery, with a staff of skilled workmen (all under my personal supervision), added to my many years' practical experience and high diplomas, places the finest optical service in Christchurch at your service. mk You are invited to call and see this wonderful machine in use at my up-to-date optical workrooms WHILE HERE HAVE A FRIENDLY CHAT ABOUT YOUR EYES wahmm Of Watsons Jewellers Limited, 695 Colombo St.(nextKincaids) 9 Christchurch
