2826. Blackhall. Robert Stokell, 47, stoneman.
On September 27th, 1918, Stokell received an injury to the eye, and was off work five weeks with such injury and was paid compensation for same. Whilst off work with the injury it was discovered that Stokell had nystagmus, and on November 1st the Certifying Surgeon gave a certificate to certify that Stokell had NOT nystagmus. Stokell appealed against this certificate and the Medical Referee upheld his appeal, and Stokell claimed to be paid compensation from the date of the Certifying Surgeon's Certificate instead of the date of the Referee's report.
The Committee decided to pay Stokell as from Jan. 1st.
