Excerpt from Seeing and Human Welfare

Civilization has lifted burdens from the backs of human beings, but it has greatly increased the severity of Visual tasks. Unnatural or ab normal demands are being met by human seeing machines under unnatural or subnormal con ditions for seeing. Human resources - eyesight, energy, health and even lives and limbs - are being unnecessarily sacrificed through lack of consciousness and knowledge of seeing. A new science of seeing has recently extended the View point of Vision into an activity involving human beings and their efficiency, behavior, resources and welfare. To the obvious value of seeing has been added knowledge of the subtle costs of seeing to human beings.
