[Archive Esoterica] Seymour Safely: AOA PSA

Once again browsing the the Internet Archive, I stumbled across a piece of ephemera that was just too bizarre to pass up:  This animated public service announcement about the AOA (American Optometric Association) comes from the 1970s spaceman Seymour Safely (see what they did there?), who looks like he should be hawking some sugary kids cereal instead of worrying so much about our eyes.

In just one short minute, we learn about myopia, poor eye muscle coordination, and the dangers of driving at night while wearing sunglasses.

Take that, Corey Hart!
