October 10th is World Sight Day! It is a day to raise awareness for blindness and vision impairment. Having the resources to afford eyeglasses or having access to an optician is actually quite new, considering eyeglasses (in some form) have been around since the 1300s.

Eyeglasses can not only correct vision but also provide protection as well. For today, Jared letterpress printed a halftone from the Brett from Pennsylvania Collection. This halftone depicts a 1950s workplace safety reminder. That reminder states, “2 good reasons for wearing EYE PROTECTION.” On each of the lenses of the safety glasses are a young boy and girl representing a worker’s children. This was printed with black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852.

Things look blurry because of the way the light entering your eye hits the back of your eyeball . If the curvature of your eye or the length of the eye isn’t exactly right, the images can be out of focus. Glasses help correct that so that the images are sharp. 

Your eyesight can change over the course of your lifetime, so if you don’t have glasses now, you might someday! Or you might need a different prescription as you get older. And some people who have glasses as kids don’t always need them as adults.

when you reach to adjust your glasses because you can’t see well, but you realize that you can’t see well because you’re not wearing your glasses
