Did You Know? 👀

Many vision problems in children show no obvious symptoms, but can affect learning, focus, and confidence. That’s why regular eye exams are key!

How often should your child get an eye exam? 👁️‍🗨️
✔️ 6–12 months: First eye check
✔️ 2–5 years: At least one exam before starting school
✔️ 6–18 years: Every 1–2 years, even if there are no complaints

Early detection makes a big difference. Book their eye exam this month and give them the gift of clear sight and confidence. 💛

For seniors, vaccines help protect them from serious illnesses like:

Talk to your doctor or care provider about which vaccines are right for you or your loved ones. Let’s keep our golden years strong and safe. 💛

Children's Eye Health & Safety Month:
Top 5 Signs Your Child May Have Vision Issues 👀

Sometimes kids don’t have the words to tell us when something’s wrong, especially with their vision. As parents and caregivers, staying tuned in to the little signs can make a big difference.

Here are 5 gentle clues that your child may need an eye check:

1️⃣ Squinting or covering one eye to see better
2️⃣ Sitting very close to screens or holding books too close
3️⃣ Complaining of headaches or sore eyes
4️⃣ Avoiding reading or seeming frustrated with schoolwork
5️⃣ Rubbing their eyes more than usual

If you notice any of these, don’t worry, a simple eye exam can help catch issues early and keep those curious little eyes seeing clearly. 👓

National Immunization Awareness Month: True or False 💉

Quick Quiz!
Older adults only need the flu shot once every few years. 🤔

👍 True
❤️ False

✔️ Answer: FALSE!

The flu vaccine should be taken every year, especially for seniors.

Why? Because:
🔁 Immunity from the shot fades over time
🦠 Flu viruses change from season to season
🛡️ Annual vaccination offers the best protection against serious illness

Getting your yearly flu shot is a simple way to protect yourself and those around you. 💙
