February Eye Care Challenge #12: Use a warm compress for 5-10 minutes

👁️ Why Warm Compresses Are One of the BEST Things You Can Do for Your Eyes 🔥

If your eyes feel dry, tired, or irritated — a simple warm compress can make a big difference!

✨ Benefits of warm compresses:
✔️ Helps unclog oil glands in your eyelids (Meibomian glands)
✔️ Improves tear quality and reduces dry eye symptoms
✔️ Relieves eyelid inflammation and irritation
✔️ Reduces styes and eyelid swelling
✔️ Soothes screen-tired eyes

💡 Why it works:
Healthy tears need oil to prevent evaporation. Heat softens the natural oils in your eyelids so they flow properly — keeping your eyes comfortable and hydrated.

🕒 How to do it:
• Use a clean warm (not hot) compress
• Place over closed eyes for 5–10 minutes
• Repeat daily for best results
Consistency matters — think of it as a daily spa treatment for your eyes! 😌
📍Experiencing dryness, burning, or fluctuating vision? A dry eye assessment can help identify the cause and the right treatment plan.

February Eye Care Challenge #11: Read a book and not a screen

Did you know reading a physical book can be easier on your eyes than reading on a screen?

Here’s why picking up a book is a win for your vision 👇

👀 Less Eye Strain
Screens emit light directly into your eyes, forcing them to work harder. Printed pages reflect light naturally, making reading more comfortable for longer periods.

💧 Fewer Dry Eye Symptoms
When we read on phones or tablets, we blink less — which can lead to dryness, irritation, and tired eyes. Reading a physical book helps maintain a more natural blink rate.

🌙 Better Sleep
Screen exposure (especially at night) can interfere with your body’s sleep cycle. A real book helps your brain wind down without blue-light disruption.

🧠 Improved Focus
No notifications. No scrolling. Just uninterrupted reading — which reduces visual fatigue and helps your eyes stay relaxed.

✅ Eye-Healthy Tip:
If you do read on screens, follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.

Your eyes work hard all day — give them a break with a good book tonight 📖

February Eye Care Challenge #10: Take a daily Omega-3 Supplement

If you are finding it hard to add Omega 3s to your daily diet, why not try a daily supplement?

💧 Why Omega-3s matter for your eyes:
✔️ Help support a healthy tear film and reduce dry eye symptoms
✔️ Support the oil glands in your eyelids (meibomian glands)
✔️ Reduce inflammation that can contribute to irritation and discomfort
✔️ Support long-term retinal and macular health

If you experience burning, watering, fluctuating vision, or tired eyes — your body may benefit from daily Omega-3 support.

February Eye Care Challenge #9: Eat Omega 3 Rich Foods

Omega-3 fatty acids play an important role in maintaining healthy tears and reducing eye inflammation. These healthy fats help support the oily layer of your tear film — which keeps tears from evaporating too quickly and helps prevent dry, irritated eyes.

Adding omega-3 rich foods to your diet may help:
✨ Improve tear quality
✨ Reduce dry eye symptoms
✨ Support retinal and long-term eye health
✨ Keep eyes more comfortable during screen time

🥑 Omega-3 foods to add to your plate:
• Salmon & sardines
• Mackerel & tuna
• Chia seeds & flaxseed
• H**p seeds

Small changes in your diet can make a big difference for your eye comfort and overall wellness.

February Eye Care Challenge #1: Wear sunglasses outside

Your sunglasses do more than complete your outfit — they protect your eyes! 👀
Wearing proper UV-protective sunglasses helps:
🕶️ Block harmful UV rays that can damage your eyes over time
🕶️ Reduce glare for clearer, more comfortable vision
🕶️ Lower your risk of cataracts and macular degeneration
🕶️ Prevent squinting (hello fewer headaches & wrinkles!)
Not all sunglasses are created equal — make sure yours offer 100% UV protection for real eye health benefits.
Your eyes deserve protection every season, not just summer! 🌤️
Need a new pair? We got you covered! Check out our impressive collective of sunglasses.

Other symptoms of cataracts:

Some factors that can increase risk of cataracts include:
