Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanics of Fitting Glasses: Giving Complete Information Concerning Fitting, Adjusting and Prescribing Eyeglass and Spectacle Frames and Mountings, and Covering All Mechanical Work Within the Province of the Refractionist Introduction The purpose of this book is to impart to the refractionist information regarding the mechanical side of fitting glasses, principally the adjustment and fitting of eyeglass and spectacle frames and mountings. It is designed to meet the great demand for data of this kind presented in a practical way and which are omitted from text books on refraction. The descriptions and instructions are confined to modern types of eyeglasses and spectacles, and antique styles are not discussed except where they have some bearing on present day fitting. The book has for its foundation the extended practical experience of the author and observation of the methods of others that have come to his attention.
