🤓✨ Viv & Jo’s Glasses Care: The Do’s, the Don’ts & the Absolute Nopes

❌ What NOT to do (yes… including the classic shirt‑wipe and the throw down)
vs
✅ What you should do to keep your specs sparkling, straight, and smugly scratch‑free.

At JMI, we believe in NOT using your sleeve as a cleaning device.
Viv & Jo are here to save your specs — one bad habit at a time.

💦 Use proper lens spray
🧼 Clean with a microfibre cloth
📦 Store them in their case
🤚 Remove carefully with both hands
🙅‍♀️ Stop using your jumper as a cleaning device (Viv is begging)

If your glasses are looking a bit… lived in, pop in and we’ll give them a proper JMI glow‑up.

🥬💚Jo says you need more greens… and she’s not wrong.
Yes, leafy greens help support macular health 👀✨
…but have you tried the kind you can wear? 😏💚

From emerald to olive to ‘did-a-highlighter-explode?’ neon, our green frames are serving style AND eye health awareness.

Eat your spinach 🥗, book your eye exam 📅, and then come pick your favourite shade of green. 👓💥

Viv popped in today and asked Jo for a random eye fact… and honestly, it’s a good one 👀

Your retina is the ONLY place in your whole body where we can see your blood vessels without cutting anything open.
A look in your eyes can show early signs of things like high blood pressure, diabetes and other health changes — long before you feel anything yourself.

So aye… your eyes aren’t just for seeing. They’re wee health detectives 🕵️‍♀️💙
Book your eye exam and let them do their thing.

“When your job description says ‘patient care, eyewear styling & clinical excellence’…

…but somehow you’re also the stars of our reels 🤷‍♀️🎥

🥦🍓🌈 MACULA MATTERS — Eat the Rainbow! 🌈🍓🥦

February is World Macula Month — and your retina’s central star (the macula!) deserves a standing ovation 👏

It’s responsible for your HD vision — reading, recognising faces, spotting typos in texts from your ex.
But AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration) is one of the leading causes of blindness — and it loves bad habits.

⚠️ Risk factors include:

🚬 Smoking
🍔 High-fat diet
💥 High blood pressure
📈 Obesity
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family history

💪 What helps?

🌿 Leafy greens (spinach, kale, rocket — pile it on!)
🍊 Colourful fruit & veg (eat the rainbow!)
😎 Sunglasses to block UV
🏃‍♀️ Regular movement
🩺 Managing blood pressure
👁️ And yes — regular eye exams!

AMD can sneak up with no symptoms — but advanced stages can blur detail, distort straight lines, and make faces harder to recognise.
The good news? Some types can be treated — especially if caught early.

📅 Book your eye exam.
🥗 Eat like your vision depends on it.
💛 Because it does.

Mandy + Valentine’s Day = a perfect match ❤️👓

We’ve been bursting to share these because Mandy picked up her heart‑shaped specs weeks ago… and honestly, holding these pics back until today has taken Olympic‑level restraint. But look at her — totally worth the wait.

And because Mandy doesn’t do “one vibe only”, she also grabbed a second pair in a completely different style. Soft romance in one look, absolute cool‑girl energy in the next.

Mandy, you’re a dream — thanks for letting us be part of your eyewear moment 💫

✨ Jo’s PSA of the Day:
If your eyes are doing anything suspicious — red, sore, blurry, flashing, floating, or just generally acting like a drama queen — Jo says there’s only ONE place you should be heading… straight to your optometrist at JMI 👀💁‍♀️

No guessing. No Googling. No “it’ll probably go away.”
Just pop in or give us a call — we’re your first stop for all eye problems. Your future self (and your vision) will thank you 😎
