Amblyopia Due to Excessive Tea Drinking.

An article by E. W. Henry, in the Ophthalmic Review, shows that strong tea may produce subnormal acuteness of vision. The patient was a man of fiftyseven, who did not use tobacco, who drank very little, but who used freely excessively strong tea. He complained of dazzling and mistiness of the eyes, and his vision was reduced nearly one-third. Under treatment and stoppage of the tea, vision improved in three months to normal, the dazzling disappeared, and he had no further trouble.
