What are cataracts?
- A cataract is an eye disease that can cause the lens of the eye to cloud, stopping light from passing through properly.

Other symptoms of cataracts:
- Colours can appear faded
- Bright rings or circles appear around light sources, especially at night
- Double vision in one eye
- Frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens prescription

Some factors that can increase risk of cataracts include:
- Increasing age
- Previous eye injury or inflammation
- Diabetes

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, book your next eye exam with us so our doctors can perform a thorough consultation & proper diagnosis.

The 20-20-20 rule is used to help reduce eye strain, especially when using digital devices.

What you need to do is:
- Every 20 minutes, take a break from looking at your screen
- Look at something 20 feet away
- Do this for at least 20 seconds

This method allows the muscles in your eyes to relax & refocus, reducing the strain that’s caused by prolonged near-focusing, which is common for those working on computers/phones or other digital devices.

It’s also a preventative rule in fighting dry eye symptoms, as prolonged screen time & close up work could lead to:
- Dryness
- Itching
- Irritation

The month of May is dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of eye health and vision care.

Having regular eye exams is important in maintaining good eye health & also helps in detecting early signs of eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy.

Not only can eye exams help detect eye diseases, but they can also help detect other health issues such as high blood pressure, certain types of cancer, and diabetes.

To maintain good eye health, book your next appointment now! You can either give us a call, book in person, or on our website www.lowysewelleyecare.com We hope to see you soon!

Upcoming solar eclipse.

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon completely or partially covers the Sun. This is a fascinating spectacle, but it is very important to guard against temporary or permanent damage to the eyes.
