Abstract
AbstractPractical details with regard to testing for and prescribing telescopic spectacles are discussed, Telescopic spectacles can be successfully used for near work in many cases in which with the ordinary correction the best distant vision obtainable is as low as 20/200. Vanity prevents most patients from wearing telescopic spectacles for distant correction in public. It is usually impracticable to use the two eyes together at the working distance. Absolute accuracy of frame adjustment is essential. Nineteen illustrative cases are briefly described. It is often better to omit the cylindrical correction unless it definitely improves visual acuity. Read before the Cleveland Ophthalmological Club, November, 1929.
