CHEAP SUN GLASSES
OPTICIANS' CRITICISM EFFECT UPON THE SIGHT GROUND LENSES ADVOCATED (.BY TELEGRAPH PRESS ASSOCIATION] WELLINGTON. Friday Strong criticism of the use of inferior sun glasses was expressed to-day at the annual conference of the New Zealand Institute of Opticians. Mr. E. R. Boyd said a doctor sent him a patient who had been wearing a pair of cheap amber-tinted glasses and who was suffering acutely from eye disturbance, which could only have been caused by the use of glasses. Other members emphasised the danger to sight caused by the use of moulded lenses in sun glasses. They suggested that only optically-ground lenses of neutral tints should be used.
