🎃👁️ Halloween Safety Tips for Your Eyes 👁️🎃
Be Safe, Not Sorry!
Halloween is all about creativity and fun — but don’t let unsafe eye habits turn your night into a fright! 👻
🕸️ Cosmetic Contact Lenses
Coloured or decorative contact lenses can cause serious eye infections or even vision loss if they aren’t properly fitted or cleaned. Always get them from an authorized dispenser (like your optometrist) to ensure safety and quality.
✨ Never share contact lenses with anyone!
💄 Make-Up & Face Paint
Use hypoallergenic products and check the Health Canada recalls list if unsure. Avoid applying makeup directly on the eyelids or lash line unless it’s an eye-safe product (like eyeliner or eyeshadow).
🚫 Don’t use blush or lip liner near the eyes — some ingredients can be harmful.
🧙 Costume Safety
Make sure masks don’t block your vision, and avoid sharp accessories. If you or your child gets poked in the eye and notice redness, pain, or blurred vision — see an optometrist or go to the ER right away.

Keep your Halloween fun — and your eyes healthy!

Flashback Friday! 🌟

Two years of dedication, countless hours, and unwavering support led to this moment—Dr. Echharam officially completed her Fellowship with the American Academy of Optometry at Academy 2025 in Boston!

What made it even more special? Returning to NECO, her alma mater, reconnecting with mentors, and soaking in the energy of Newbury Street and the T. 🚇🛍️

None of this would’ve been possible without the support of her incredible team, associate doctors, and the inspiring guidance of Dr. Rizwana Hussaindeen.

Celebrations continue in Toronto—because milestones like this deserve more than one toast! 🥂
