If So, Yot
Need Glasses
Do you have headaches?
Do your eyes water?
Do they ache?
Does print run together?
Do things appear double?
Are your eyes Inflamed?
Do your eyes tire after
reading awhile?
Does bright light pain
them?
If so, you need glasses. Don't
be reckless with your eyes.
They certainly deserve the best
care that can be had.
