This is a quack Eye Ball Massager instrument dating to the 1930s advertised to cure a variety of medical ailments. It is called the “London Neu – Vita Oculizer” with patent date of 363101. On opposite side it is stamped “New-Vita”. This dates to the 1930s (per British Patent number research). It was advertised to cure a variety of physical problems (i.e. Vision Correction, Headaches and many Neurological conditions). To operate this bizarre gizmo, user would place the black Bakelite side onto eye lids and squeeze the two red bulbs that would pulsate the plungers back and forth for eyeball massage and cure. The opposite side has two rubber suction cups that when bulbs are pressed creates a light vacuum perhaps to suck out the bad eye balls. This 80+ year old instrument is still in very good operational condition.
