👓📝 Ever looked at your glasses prescription and thought… what does all this mean?!
This JulEYE, we’re helping you make sense of your numbers — because understanding your eye health matters.

Here’s a plain-English breakdown of what’s on your script:

🔹 SPH (Sphere):
This tells us if you’re short-sighted (–) or long-sighted (+). The higher the number, the stronger the prescription.

🔹 CYL (Cylinder):
This means you have astigmatism — where the eye is shaped more like a football than a basketball, causing blurred vision at certain angles.

🔹 Axis:
This shows where the astigmatism is located on your eye — like a clock face from 1° to 180°.

🔹 ADD:
This is for multifocal or reading lenses, showing the extra power needed up close — commonly used after age 40 when near focus becomes harder (presbyopia).

👁️‍🗨️ Still unsure what it all means? That’s okay — we’re here to explain your prescription, not just hand it to you.

🗓️ This JulEYE, book an eye test at Penshurst Eyecare and we’ll take the time to walk you through every number — no jargon.

📚👁️‍🗨️ Squinting? Rubbing eyes? Struggling to focus in class?
This JulEYE, let’s talk about how vision problems in kids can be easy to miss — and even misdiagnosed.

1 in 5 school-aged children has an undetected vision issue, and they often can’t explain what’s wrong because they think it’s normal.

🚩 Common signs to watch for:
🔹 Squinting to see the board
🔹 Rubbing eyes frequently
🔹 Short attention span or zoning out
🔹 Complaining of headaches
🔹 Avoiding reading or near work
🔹 Sitting too close to screens or books
🔹 Poor handwriting or eye-hand coordination

🧠 These can be mistaken for learning or behavioural issues — when really, your child might just need glasses or vision therapy.

👁️‍🗨️ The good news? A simple, child-friendly eye test can detect issues like:
✔️ Short-sightedness (myopia)
✔️ Long-sightedness
✔️ Astigmatism
✔️ Eye teaming or tracking difficulties
✔️ Amblyopia or strabismus

🗓️ This JulEYE, give your child the clearest path to learn and thrive — book a bulk-billed eye test at Penshurst Eyecare.

💻👁️ Blue light and screen time — what's fact, what's fiction, and how can you protect your eyes?
This JulEYE, we’re breaking down the truth about digital eye strain and blue light.

📱 FACT: Staring at screens for hours does cause eye strain.
😴 FACT: Blue light can affect your sleep if you're on screens late at night.
🙄 MYTH: Blue light is "damaging" your eyes — there’s no solid evidence that screen light causes permanent damage.
🧐 FACT: Discomfort from screens is real — and manageable.

Common digital eye strain symptoms:
🔹 Tired or burning eyes
🔹 Headaches
🔹 Blurry or fluctuating vision
🔹 Neck and shoulder tension
🔹 Difficulty focusing after screen breaks

💡 Simple ways to manage it:
✅ Follow the 20-20-20 rule
✅ Use anti-fatigue or blue-filter lenses (especially if working under artificial light)
✅ Adjust screen brightness and position
✅ Blink often and consider a humidifier or eye drops for dryness

👁️‍🗨️ This JulEYE, if your screen time is leaving your eyes exhausted — let’s chat. Book a digital eye strain consult at Penshurst Eyecare.

👵👓 Vision changes are common with age — but they should never be ignored.
This JulEYE, we’re highlighting the importance of eye care in aged care settings, and what families should know to protect their loved ones’ sight.

As we age, the risk of serious eye conditions increases:
⚠️ Cataracts
⚠️ Glaucoma
⚠️ Macular degeneration
⚠️ Diabetic eye disease
⚠️ Dry eyes and reduced contrast sensitivity

These can affect:
❌ Mobility and fall risk
❌ Confidence and independence
❌ Reading, recognising faces, and quality of life
❌ Early signs of dementia may even be missed if vision isn't clear

👁️‍🗨️ Good eye care in aged care is more than a new pair of glasses — it’s about protecting dignity, safety, and connection.

💡 Families can help by:
✔️ Ensuring regular eye tests (even if no complaints)
✔️ Asking about glasses fit and condition
✔️ Watching for signs of confusion, squinting, or withdrawal
✔️ Requesting referral if vision-related issues are noticed

🗓️ This JulEYE, let’s care for the people who cared for us. Book a comprehensive eye check for your loved one at Penshurst Eyecare.

🛠️🧑‍⚕️💻 Your eyes work hard on the job — but are you protecting them?
This JulEYE, we’re putting the spotlight on occupational eye safety across all kinds of workplaces.

Whether you’re on a job site, in a clinic, or behind a screen, your eyes face daily risks:

👷 In trades and construction:
⚠️ Flying debris, dust, UV, chemicals
✅ Safety glasses, face shields, and tinted lenses are a must

🧑‍⚕️ In healthcare:
⚠️ Exposure to infectious splashes, laser procedures, and screen strain
✅ Use properly rated eye protection and blue-light filters where needed

💻 In screen-heavy roles:
⚠️ Eye fatigue, dry eyes, headaches, blurry vision
✅ Follow the 20-20-20 rule, use anti-reflective lenses, and get regular eye checks

🧠 Remember: 90% of workplace eye injuries are preventable with the right protection and habits.

👁️‍🗨️ This JulEYE, safeguard your sight. Book a workplace-focused eye test at Penshurst Eyecare — and ask us about protective eyewear options.

💧👁️ Dry, gritty, or watery eyes? It might be more than just tiredness.
This JulEYE, we’re shining a light on dry eye syndrome — one of the most common (and overlooked) causes of daily discomfort.

Dry eye happens when your tears aren’t working properly — either from not enough moisture, or poor-quality tears.

Common causes include:
💻 Lots of screen time
🌬️ Air conditioning or heaters
💊 Medications (like antihistamines, antidepressants)
👁️ Contact lenses
📉 Hormonal changes (especially after 40)

You might experience:
❌ Stinging or burning
❌ Gritty, sandy feeling
❌ Blurry or fluctuating vision
❌ Excessive watering (yes, that’s still dry eye!)

💡 The good news? There are effective treatments available — from eye drops and heat masks to in-practice therapies.

👁️‍🗨️ This JulEYE, don’t just live with it. Book a dry eye consultation at Penshurst Eyecare and find real relief.

🌪️👁️ Migraine isn’t just a headache — and your eyes could be a key part of the problem.
This JulEYE, let’s raise awareness about the link between vision and migraines.

Common visual migraine triggers include:
💡 Bright lights or glare
📱 Screen time and flickering lights
🌈 Visual overload or patterns
🔦 Fluorescent lighting (common in workplaces and classrooms)

You might experience:
⚡ Aura or visual distortions
🔄 Light sensitivity (photophobia)
🤯 Eye strain or pressure before the migraine hits

💡 One solution many migraine sufferers are discovering?
FL-41 tinted lenses — like those in our NeuroTint range.
These precision-tinted lenses are designed to:
✅ Reduce light sensitivity
✅ Filter out triggering wavelengths
✅ Support more comfortable screen time and lighting environments

👓 Whether you get migraines with aura, photophobia, or visual snow, our team can help assess whether FL-41 is right for you.

🗓️ This JulEYE, take a step toward calmer, more comfortable vision. Book a migraine and vision consult at Penshurst Eyecare.

👓📚 This JulEYE, let’s talk about one of the fastest-growing eye conditions in kids and teens — myopia (short-sightedness).
It’s more than just needing glasses to see far away — it’s about long-term eye health.

🔍 Myopia is when the eye grows too long, causing blurry distance vision.
But what many parents don’t realise is:
⚠️ The younger it starts, the faster it tends to progress
⚠️ High levels of myopia increase the risk of serious eye diseases later in life — like retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular disease

Signs your child may be short-sighted:
🚫 Squinting at the board
📱 Holding screens too close
📚 Complaints of headaches or tired eyes
❌ Sitting too close to the TV

💡 The good news? There are clinically proven options to slow myopia progression — including MiYOSMART and Stellest lenses, night lenses (orthokeratology), and low-dose atropine drops.

👁️‍🗨️ This JulEYE, don’t just “wait and see.” Book an eye test with us and ask about myopia control.
