OH, BUT I DO
have my glasses on.
Today, this is becoming a fairly
Common statement. (Many people
are being fitted with contact lens- (
m, with perfect suecess, eliminat-
ing heavy spectacle*. In m*ny in-
stances, much better vision ia
achieved with contacts.
For 25 years Dr. Crawfrd has'
been developing len* grinding and
serving doctors in 46 state. From
one employee to S2 is • good rs-
cord of development.
A year ago Dr. Crawford ad-
vised people to wait on contact
lense* due to a few “bug*”. No*
they are practical. Today the
latest patented contacts float on
the window of the eye, only half
th* rise of a shirt button, and are
worn full-time comfortably.
The public must beware of bar-
gain offers of contact lenses. Th*
old model, were not practical, and
most "store*” who "aell glaseee”
*r* interested'in a sale — not
your virion.
Dr. Crawford ha, waited until
a perfect service could be render-
ed and made to jour own eye*
