Official Medical Referee Cases.
Auckland Park. James Railton.
1. "The said J. Railton to-day shows no signs of Miners' Nystagmus. He sees very badly at night but does not flinch when a strong light is thrown into his eyes. His night blindness has not the characteristics of that due to Miners' Nystagmus and his condition is such that he is far better off, as far as his health is concerned, in his present occupation than if he were employed in the colliery.
2. The incapacity of the said J. Railton is apparently only partial and is due to night blindness which in my opinion does not result from a past Miners' Nystagmus.
Dated this 4th day of June, 1926.
(Signed) A. S. PERCIVAL,
Medical Referee."
