have your lenses (镜片) changed from time to time. John Silver, a professor at Oxford University, may
be able to help you.

based on a simple principle: the fatter the lens is, the more powerful it is. Inside each lens is a clear bag
filled with fluid (液体). The wearers can change the amount of fluid with a syringe to change the power
of the lenses.

is one optometrist (验光师) for every 4,soo people, but in Africa only one for every l,000,000.

( )4. This kind of glasses will be useful in Africa because it"s hard to find an optometrist there.
