INJURIOUS GLASSES
The increasing use of inferior sunglasses undoubtedly merited the attention of the institute, said the president of the Institute of Opticians of New Zealand (Mr. R. Brooke-Taylor) at the institute's annual meeting. The flaws and imperfections in the lenses of inferior glasses caused more strain and discomfort than any relief afforded by glare prevention, he said. It was a point to be considered whether the institute should ask the Government to exercise some check on the quality of all sunglasses imported into the country. If restriction of imports was to be applied to those goods, then it was to be hoped that it would be directed against the injurious glasses.
