Are You Sure Of Your Eyes?
Famous athletes attribute their success to “eyes and timing . . . it’s that speed of adjustment that counts” . . . in bowling, baseball or golf, in fact in any sport.
Don’t be satisfied with anything less than the thorough care of an eye physician to examine and prescribe . . . and a Guild optician to make and fit your glasses.
