Consultant to the Canadian Guild of Dispensing Opticians "I'm going to get some new glasses. This time I’d like one of those big frames with large lenses,Willthere be anydifficulty with my prescription .7" If you find yourself in this categmy you're not unusual these days. And if that question about your prescription does occur to you, you‘re pretty smart. Because there JUSI mrghr be difficulty. Not always, just some- times. It depends on the kind of lenses you need. With some there's no trouble at all, with others we have to be careful. In extreme cases. they simply can‘t be made. How can you tell? And what do we have to be careful about? Mostly it's the power of the lenses, and whether they are for one visionâ€"like only for distance â€" or for two, like bifocals. If you're very young and the lenses are not bifocals, then your only concern is how thick, and there- fore how heavy your glasses may turn out to be. Remember, the bigger they are, the heavier. Ask your Optician about optical plastic lenses. They weigh about half as much as glass lenses and they are resistant to impact too. They look exactly the same as glass and behave precisely the same way. You might be surpris- ed to know how many of your friends have opticalplasticlenses. If they are bifocal, you may have a problem. Not all bifocal lenses can be made for some of those big frames, But some can. It depends on the kind 0f bifocal. and how big the frame is. My adviceâ€"Talk it over with your dispensing Optician. He'll tell you whether your lenses can be made for the frame you'd like to wear. and he'll show you how they will look too. The chances are they can be made all right, and that you'll like them. And frankly, I don't blame you. Some of these new big lens styles are really attractive.

MAPLE GARBAGE Garbage dumping in Maple was discussed. The meeting decided to endorse the work being done by the Maple Ratepayers in regard to pro- tecting the environment of the Town of Vaughan and that they plan to continue to do so. The Question of the preser- vation of the historic houses in Thornhill was brought to the meeting’s attention by the chairman. There is no by- law or other legislation at the moment which could pre- vent historic dwellings from being bought and raised. In order to deal with this it was suggested that after confer- ence with other ratepayers' associations within the area, a Thornhill Conservation Committee might be estab- lished. Terms of reference should 6f Diégensing Opticians 223-5168 “'45 .be prepared for such a com- mittee. pThe purpose would be to ask the authorities to formulate and pass bylaws in order to ensure preservation of important historic build- ings.
