👓 COMMON MISCONCEPTION 👀
“Wearing glasses makes your eyes weaker.”

❌ False.
Glasses don’t weaken your eyes — they simply help your eyes focus properly so you can see clearly and comfortably.

✅ The truth:
✔️ Glasses reduce eye strain
✔️ They help prevent headaches and visual fatigue
✔️ Your prescription changes over time due to natural eye development, not because you wear glasses

Wearing the correct prescription actually supports your visual comfort and eye health 💚

If you’re unsure whether your prescription is right for you, we’re always happy to help.

👀 COMMON MISCONCEPTION 💡
“Eye exercises can fix vision problems.”

❌ Not quite.
Eye training cannot change your prescription or cure refractive errors like short-sightedness, long-sightedness or astigmatism.

✅ The truth:
Eye exercises can help with:
✔️ Eye comfort
✔️ Visual coordination
✔️ Reducing eye strain in certain conditions

But glasses, contact lenses, or specialist assessments are still essential for clear, healthy vision 👓✨

If you’re unsure what your eyes actually need, our optometrists are here to guide you with honest, evidence-based advice.

In ancient Egypt, the Eye of Horus symbol was believed to represent protection, healing, and good health — a powerful reminder of how important vision has always been throughout history.

Today, eye care may be more scientific than symbolic, but protecting your vision is just as important 👓💚

Regular eye examinations help safeguard your eye health and catch issues early — long before they affect your day-to-day life.

🕶️ COMMON MISCONCEPTION 👀
“Any sunglasses protect your eyes.”

❌ Not true.
Without proper UV protection, sunglasses can actually do more harm than good — your pupils dilate, letting in even more damaging UV rays ☀️👁️

✅ What to look for:
✔️ 100% UV400 protection
✔️ Lenses tested and approved by professionals
✔️ Proper fit and optical quality

At Chase Meadow Opticians, we make sure your sunglasses protect your eyes and your vision — not just your style 😎
