💚January is Glaucoma Awareness Month 💚

Glaucoma often develops with no early symptoms, damaging your vision from the periphery inwards. This is something we can find early, which is why regular eye tests are so important.

Here at EK Eyecare we check your eye pressure, assess your optic nerves and your visual fields. We also perform an OCT free of charge, which can detect any subtle changes before vision is affected.

📆 Schedule your eye test today and help protect your vision for the future. Give us a call on 01355 274 356 ☎

With so many coughs, colds and viruses going around just now, including adenovirus 🦠 it's important to know that some of these can affect the eyes too.

Red, watery or sore eyes, a gritty feeling or light sensitivity are things to watch out for 👀 viral conjunctivitis usually clears on its own, so treatment is focused on easing symptoms - use lubricating eye drops, cool compresses and avoid wearing contact lenses until eyes have fully settled 👌

Good hand washing also helps prevent the spread, and it's best to avoid touching your eyes or sharing towels ✅

If eye symptoms don't settle or your vision feels off make an appointment for an eye check today.

If you find yourself holding the shopping list or that festive menu a little further away than usual, it could be presbyopia - a totally normal change in vision as we get older.
