How well would you say you look after your eyes? Do you take supplements to improve their health and longevity? Do you regularly use artificial tears to keep them hydrated?

Did you know a little over 45% of the population suffer with dry eyes? This figure only includes the patients that have received an actual diagnosis by their optometrist. Many more don't even realise they have it until the eye becomes so irritated and sore that they can't bear it and seek help from their pharmacist or optician.

Patients often think that once they have finished the treatment they are cured. This is absolutely not the case. If you have dry eyes, like dry skin, it's for life!

If you think you are suffering with *symptoms relating to dry eye please reach out to us. We can help. There are lots of treatments available on prescription that can ease your discomfort.

*Symptoms: gritty, watery, nippy, feels like grit in the eye and feels like sometimes a film over eye.

Let’s get Myopia under control

Hi,
As your Optometrist in Balfron Eyecare I am very passionate about myopia control glasses for children.

To prevent your child’s short-sight prescription getting worse as he/she grows I can prescribe and dispense, for you highly researched, evidence based myopia controlled lenses.

To explain the science:

Myopia controlled lenses reduce short sight progression and axial elongation for children compared to normal single-vision lenses. These specialist lenses utilize arrays of lens-lets (little hexagons)to induce peripheral myopic defocus and modulate retinal image contrast, mechanisms shown to inhibit axial (eye length) growth.

See you soon,

Hello all, an important update on our opening hours this week, as our lovely Susan is away. The shop will be open from 9am to 4pm. Susan will be back on Tuesday 25th November.

Should you experience an eye emergency, please consult your local pharmacist in the first instance and get yourself to an Optometrist. Should you need to go to hospital, that is the fastest and most efficient way to be seen by an Ophthalmologist.

Keep well everyone
