It is surprising how many talented athletes leave advantages like good vision and good eye coordination on the table. In sports there are so many things you cannot control, that you do not want to overlook the things that you can control. If you are an aspiring athlete, ask us how we can make you better.

Well how about that: Since putting on his glasses, Max Muncy has become a totally different level of hitter. 👓

After nearly 30 games hitting with his specs on, after 28 without them, his batting average is close to 100 points higher, he's striking out half as much and has hit all 9 of his HRs with them on.

The Canadian government recently passed Bill C-284 a national strategy for eye care, with the unanimous support of all parties. It is important that our elected representatives support the national strategy for eye care and vision health in Canada after the next election.
Over 8 million Canadians are at risk of serious eye conditions, especially older adults (55+), and as our population ages even more people will face vision impairment. Many eye conditions don't show symptoms early on, so it's vital to include eye care in everyone's healthcare routine. Early detection and treatment can prevent 75% of visual impairments. Myopia, affecting 30% of the population, is now a global public health crisis and is expected to affect 50% of the world's population by 2050. In 2019, the total cost of vision loss in Canada was $32.9 billion, resulting in 9.5 billion in direct health system costs.
Our most vulnerable populations are at greater risk for eye disease. First Nations populations face a higher burden of chronic diseases and associated risk factors compared to the general population. Additionally, First Nations people are less likely to get eye exams compared to other Canadians. Only about half of adults (49.8%) and youth (50.2%) reported having an eye exam in the past year. Our practice sees more First Nation patients than most others in NB, we see this.
Vision care is essential for overall health and quality of life.
