Help to the Blind and Defective Eyes by Doctor Clark
A lengthy 18th century advertisement recounts Dr T Clark a physician and oculist who cured blindness in several crowned heads and notable painters. It promotes remedies for preventing and reversing eye ailments such as cataracts and misty vision, claims royal favor, lists works and publications, and notes a shop near Salisbury Street in London offering these eye cures by mail with payment in advance.
