From monocles to pince-nez and goggle-eyes, a cultural and technological history of glasses in fact and fiction. This book examines those who wore glasses through history, art, and literature, from the green emerald through which Emperor Nero watched gladiator fights to Benjamin Franklin’s homemade bifocals, and from Marilyn Monroe’s cat-eye glasses to the famed four-eyes of Emma Bovary and Harry Potter. Spectacles are objects that seem commonplace, but In the Blink of an Eye shows that because they fundamentally changed people’s lives, glasses were the wellspring of a quiet social, cultural, and economic revolution. Indeed, one can argue that modernity itself began with the paradigm shift that transformed poor eyesight from a severely limiting disease—treated with pomades and tinctures—into a minor impairment that can be remedied with mechanisms constructed from lenses and wire.

This book is an all-time classic on eye-care. Based on Dr. W.H. Bate’s personal experiences in correcting eye problems and improving eyesight, the book explains his theories which have received wide international recognition and come to be called the Bates Method. The Bates Method is a natural, non-invasive and commons sense method of enhancing vision and retraining the eyes to see properly using simple techniques to relieve strain and improve brain/eye coordination. Written in a simple and lucid style, the book is a definitive guide to the Bates Method. The stress is on natural methods such as palming and central fixation (tratak — an ancient yoga technique), and home treatment, wherever practical. Bates Method has helped countless persons recover their natural eyesight proving that good eyesight without glasses is not a myth, but a very achievable reality. The present volume is a thoroughly researched and updated edition of the classic work.
