November is Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month—a crucial time to shed light on the impact of diabetes on vision health. 👁️

Diabetic eye disease, including conditions like diabetic retinopathy, is a leading cause of vision loss in adults. Early detection through regular eye exams can make all the difference.

Robert and his dad thought it would be another routine appointment for him, until an eye exam revealed the shocking truth behind his symptoms. He was diagnosed with three malignant germinoma brain tumors, or brain cancer. With a diagnosis uncovered and an optometrist by his side, Robert could finally get the care he needed.​

As part of our An optometrist saved my life series, we have spoken to patient Hugo Fairbanks Weston, and optometrist and practice owner, Adrian Kite. Hugo presented to Kite Opticians with migraines and visual disturbances. His appointment led to a brain tumour diagnosis.

Reflecting on the importance of sight tests, Hugo told OT: “I definitely think sight tests are much more essential than I did before.”

Each year, we recognize July 23 as World Sjögren's Day. WCO is proud to support the Sjögren’s Foundation and all Sjögren’s patients. Unfortunately, because Sjögren’s causes white blood cells to attack the tear glands, 92% of Sjögren's patients suffer from dry eye disease.

As we commemorate World Glaucoma Week, let us unite in raising awareness about this sight-threatening disease. Glaucoma remains a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, but with early detection and timely intervention, its impact can be minimized. Let us prioritize regular eye check-ups and spread awareness to ensure that everyone has access to the care they need. Together, we can fight against glaucoma and preserve vision for generations to come.

February is Low Vision Month
There are a few ways to define low vision. I think of it as having vision that is not good enough to perform activities of daily living despite best correction with glasses, contacts, or surgery. Meaning, there isn’t a simple fix through glasses or cataract surgery (or any other surgery).

Many conditions can lead to low vision, with macular degeneration being one of the leading causes, especially in older adults. Other causes may be glaucoma, diabetes-related eye disease, cornea problems, retinal detachment, and there are others.

Cataracts should not be a cause of low vision, as they can nearly always be treated with surgery.

Symptoms of low vision are really any decrease in visual function. It could be decreased visual acuity (not being able to see “small” things), decrease in contrast sensitivity (not being able to distinguish subtle shades of gray), decreased color vision, and decreased peripheral vision just to name a few.

The first step in low vision is to have a regular comprehensive eye exam to know that you don’t just need glasses or contacts. If your vision can’t be corrected, you may be referred to a low-vision specialist. Very few eye doctors do low-vision evaluations. It may not be easy to find one in your area, but it is worth looking or getting a referral.

A low vision evaluation will be different in that it doesn’t involve medical testing and is based on rechecking glasses numbers and trying to find devices to help you function.
Some of the different options your low vision specialist may recommend may include magnifiers, digital magnifiers, “reading machines”, devices that utilize optical character recognition to read print to you, lighting, colored filters, coatings on glasses, higher power reading glasses, and there are more. It is important to note that there are many different types and powers of magnifiers, and it is only with the help of an expert that you can expect to have the best outcome with them.

It is also important to consider joining a support group, find a resource like MDA to keep up to date on research, and seek help when needed through family or professionals for mental health struggles like anxiety or depression.
