The holidays bring joy, excitement, and… toys with questionable designs.

As you’re wrapping presents and making magic happen, here’s a gentle reminder to keep your little ones’ eyes safe from the sneaky risks hiding behind some popular holiday gifts.

This season, choose age-appropriate gifts, and make sure play-time is always supervised. If a toy shoots, launches, or travels at suspicious speeds…maybe give it a second thought before it finds its way under the tree.

Here’s to a season filled with bright lights, happy kids, and healthy eyes!

Your vision is precious, and together, we can protect it for years to come. To book your screening call/WhatsApp 298-6668.

The holidays have a way of bringing everything into focus; The people we love, the moments that make us smile, and the memories we’ll want to hold onto for years to come.

But how often do we stop and think about how we see it all? How often do we consider the way our vision makes each of these memories that much better?

As the 2025 winds down, it’s easy to get caught up in the year-end hustle.

Planning your gifts for the upcoming holidays? Consider giving your eyes a moment on that shopping list too.

Check in on your eye health, and make sure your vision is good to go for 2026.Think of it as gift to your future self.

Book your end-of-year eye consultation before the year wraps up and enter the new year with clarity and confidence!

Sugar doesn’t just affect your waistline, it can quietly steal your sight!

When blood sugar levels stay high for too long, they damage the delicate vessels in the eyes, leading to various diseases. What’s tricky is that vision loss often starts silently; no pain, no early warning, just gradual change.

Your vision is priceless. Don’t let sugar blur the picture

Imagine having to see the world in blur. Everyday details: the smile of a loved one, the colors of a sunset, your favourite foods and moments, all unclear.

This World Sight Day, the NU Eye Care team would like to leave you with a reminder that our eyes like every other part of us require attention, and healthy habits to keep them functioning at their best.

Simple choices, like taking breaks from screens, reading in proper light, staying hydrated, eating nutrient-rich foods, and keeping up with regular eye exams, can make a world of difference.

As your ophthalmologist, I take pride in not just treating eyes, but caring for the person behind them.

You might have seen it in the mirror; a small, fleshy growth creeping in from the corner of your eye toward the center.

That growth is called a Pterygium, and while it often starts off looking like a little bump, it can bring irritation, redness, and eventually interfere with your vision.

Living in sunny, windy climates like ours, makes it even more common, and for many people, it can become more than a cosmetic concern

If you’ve noticed this change in your eyes, let’s talk about the next step toward relief and clarity. NU Eye Care offers safe and effective pterygium surgery to remove these growths and help restore your clear, healthy vision.

At times, our eyes can feel itchy, tired, or watery, and before we even think twice, our fingers are right there rubbing away.

While this might provide instant relief, the reality is, your eyes are extremely delicate and rubbing them can create problems down the road.

Instead, next time that annoying itch creeps in, pause. Grab some soothing drops, try a cool compress, or simply close your eyes for a quick reset.
