GLASS-BLOWERS' CATARACT It has been recognized for many years that glass-blowers appear to be particularly susceptible to a special form of cataract, which begins in the posterior part of the lens, the remainder of the lens for a long time remaining clear. The cataract most frequently appears in the left eye, which is more exposed to the molten mass. The length of time necessary for...

Página 166 - The causes of the general rise of sea-level in the latest geological time might perhaps be connected with those climatic changes which the earth underwent in the Glacial period. If, during that time, northern Europe, northern North America, and the Antarctic regions were simultaneously glaciated, a considerable mass of water must have been removed from the ocean, and, if the thickness of ice be assumed as 1,000 meters, the sea-level must have been 150 meters below its present...
