Happy Women’s Eye Health and Safety Month!
Your eyes aren’t being dramatic… they might just be hormonal 👀✨
If you’ve been dealing with dry, irritated, or blurry eyes and thought “why is this happening?” — you’re definitely not alone.
As women, our hormones can play a *huge* role in eye health. Things like:
• Your monthly cycle
• Pregnancy
• Contraception
• Perimenopause / menopause
…can all impact how your eyes feel day to day.
And because women are more likely to experience dry eye, those symptoms are often more than just “too much screen time.”
The good news? You don’t just have to put up with it.
We’ve recently introduced dedicated dry eye assessments, looking at the underlying cause of your symptoms — and from there, tailoring treatment options to suit you. This can include things like LLLT (low-level light therapy) and other targeted treatments designed to actually improve eye comfort over time ✨ Make an enquiry here: https://wefixeyes.co.nz/dry-eye-treatments/
Our team, including Shannon (Optometrist) and Dr Logan (Surgeon), are both highly experienced in managing dry eye and helping you understand what’s going on with your eyes.
If something’s been feeling off, it might be worth getting it checked — even just for peace of mind 👀
