Is Southern California Light f Injurious • Protection Needed from Acintic Rays The unusually large percentage of people suffering with their eyes In Cal ifornia is largely due to the composi tion of our light. Among the well known rays of the spectrum, compos ing white light, are innumerable sub rays of which the infra red and ultra violet rays, better known as chemical rays, are the rays which cause sun burn and also an irritation of the ret ina of the eye. As Southern California has a super abundance of these chemical rays peo ple suffer more with their eyes here than in eastern localities. Dr. Jesberg, 328-329 Security building, has given this subject special attention, grinding lenses of crystal especially adapted to the light of this locality.
