Sunglasses aren’t just a summer thing. Winter sun, snow glare, and UV exposure can be just as hard on your eyes, especially in January. When sunlight reflects off snow and ice, it increases brightness and strain, which can lead to squinting, headaches, dryness, and long-term eye damage.
Our latest blog explains why protecting your eyes in winter matters, how UV rays still affect your vision even on cloudy days.

Head to our latest blog at the link below to learn why sunglasses are a year-round essential and how to protect your eyes this winter with help from Ambleside Family Optometry.

Winter can be especially tough on your eyes. Cold outdoor air, dry indoor heating, and more screen time all work together to strip moisture from the tear film, leading to dryness, irritation, redness, and that gritty feeling.

A few simple habits can help reduce winter dry eye symptoms. If dryness, burning, or irritation keeps coming back, a professional dry eye assessment can help identify the cause and guide you toward lasting relief. Winter eye discomfort isn’t something you have to push through.

If your eyes start feeling heavy, dry, or strained by midday, you’re not imagining it. Long hours on screens, reduced blinking, dry indoor air, and poor lighting all force your eyes to work harder than they should. Over time, this can lead to fatigue, redness, and headaches.

Simple changes like taking regular breaks, improving lighting, staying hydrated, and wearing the right lenses can make a noticeable difference.

A new year is the perfect time to refresh your glasses. Whether you’re updating your look, replacing an old pair, or finally investing in frames that feel comfortable and functional, the right eyewear can make a big difference in how you see and how you feel.

Our eyewear collection for 2026 includes styles that balance comfort, durability, and modern design, with options to suit everyday wear, work, and active lifestyles.

Start the year seeing clearly and feeling great in frames that truly work for you.

Your eyes change more often than you think, even if your vision feels the same. Regular eye exams help keep your prescription up to date and can detect early signs of eye disease long before symptoms appear.

Your glasses go everywhere with you, so give them the care they deserve.

Use a lens spray and a clean microfiber cloth to remove smudges and dust, and avoid wiping them with your shirt or paper towels, those can cause tiny scratches over time. A little care keeps your lenses clear and your frames looking like new.

Ever met someone with two different eye colours? That unique look is caused by a condition called heterochromia. It happens when there’s a variation in the pigment (melanin) between the irises. Heterochromia can be present from birth or develop later in life, and while it’s usually harmless, it definitely makes for a one-of-a-kind gaze.

Your eyes deserve extra care during the winter months. ❄️

Cold winds, dry indoor air, and bright snow glare can all cause irritation and discomfort. Keep your vision clear by staying hydrated, using a humidifier, and wearing sunglasses outdoors to protect against UV reflection. Small steps make a big difference for your eye health all season long. ☃️
