Benjamin Franklin and the Opticians
When not looking at the world through his spectacles, Franklin was corresponding
with their makers. He claimed they helped him to understand foreign languages
and attract the opposite sex. Neil Handley, from the museum at the College of
Optometrists, will open our eyes to this contradictory and controversial facet of
Franklin’s many scientific and business interests.
