Dear Ann Landers: Two of your
recent columns dealt with early
warning signs for diseases such as
:erebral palsy and hepatitis B. You
have made millions of people aware
of how to detect and take fast action
against these illnesses.
Each year more than 50,000
Americans gq blind, one-third
needlessly. Another 13 million
suffer from eye diseases. Ailing eyes
rarely send warning messages of
pain, so testing to assure early
detection is crucial.
The enclosed "Reader's Digest
Home Eye Test," featured in our
September issue, was developed in
cooperation with the American
Academy of Ophthalmology and the
American Optometric Association.
A reader from Bowling Green,
Mo., told us that after she took the
home test she phoned her optome-
trist and was immediately referred
to a retina specialist The woman is
now being treated for AMD
(age-related macular degeneration),
the principal cause of legal blind-
nCSS.au fkvijtn -C.! . ijtiiUi
We hope our eye test will help
others protect their precious sight
For a free copy of the test, your
readers can send a self-addressed,
stamped envelope to "Reader's
Digest Home Eye Test" Reprint

DEAR LESTA CORDIL: Thank
you for the eye test I sent it to my
ophthalmologist and here is her
response:
Dear Ann Landers: I reviewed
the "Reader's Digest Home Eye
Ann
Landers ^(
4
&
Test" and found the information
accurate and worthwhile.
My only concern is that people
who use it may get a false feeling of
security that all is well. While it has
value, it is not a substitute for a good
eye exam. There are several diseases
that it will miss. The most signifi-
cant of these is glaucoma, a
blinding eye disease which in its
early stages presents no symptoms.
I believe the exam does have
merit, however, and that you can
safely recommend it to your
readers, if you point out that the test
does have this one notable
deficiency. - SINCERELY, MAY

DEAR READERS: Here’s a
shameless plug for an ideal
Christmas or Chanukah gift for
children 10 years of age and older
and adults, too. This truly funny
book covers 13 billion years of
history and explains and illustrates
the major achievements of modem
civilization. The name: "The
Cartoon History of the Universe:
From the Big Bang to Alexander the
Great." The author is Larry Gonick.
The publisher: Doubleday. The
price, only $14.95. The kids
will love it, once you stop reading
it and hand it over. I was totally fas-
cinated and I'm sure you will be,
too.
Dear Ann Landers: Oh, the
things I have learned from your '
column! Now is pay-back time.
C.C. in Chicago was in search of
a snappy comeback to friends who •
said, "You're no fun anymore," after ;
she stopped drinking, smoking and
taking drugs and had lost 50 pounds.
You recommended silence lo those
morons.
You might appreciate what my -’
recently sobered-up friend said lo
an old drinking pal who chided, "I
liked you a lot better when you were
drunk." She replied, "I liked you a
lot better when I was drunk, too." - v.
