    A little bit of "hidden" London of particular interest to anyone who wears glasses or contacts. No one can complain about modern eyewear after seeing what the Victorians endured. The collection, which covers several hundred years of equipment is helpfully explained by the curator. Perhaps see this after visiting the nearby National Gallery or Ben Franklin House. Call ahead to make sure a guide is there.
