Durham Miners' Association

Report of Proceedings
of Special Metting of
Arbitration Committee Meeting
held in the
The Coal Trade Offices, Newcastle-on-Tyne
On Monday, September 26th 1922
Official Medical Referee Cases.
5032. Wearmouth. J. Fowler, 39, stoneman.
1. "The said J. Fowler is very short-sighted in his right eye in which he has had a macula haemorrhage and choroidites. This prevents him from seeing the point he is directly looking at. His left eye is blind, having a slightly dislocated lens, getting in part opaque and a detached retina, and his condition is such that he is unfit for any but the lightest work that does not involve stooping. Possibly he could work in the lamp cabin.
2. The incapacity of the said Jonathan Fowler is entirely due to the injury which caused a slight dislocation of the lens. Partial opacity of lens and detached retina. His right eye had previously lost its central vision so that he is far worse off than a one-eyed man.
Dated this 8th day of September, 1922.
(Signed) A. S. PERCIVAL,
Medical Referee."
