The National Eye Institute estimates that by 2050, rising UV exposure due to ozone depletion will lead to an additional 150,000 to 200,000 cases of cataract – over and above the expected number associated with aging. Taking care of our environment will help protect our eyes!

Are you wearing sunglasses when you are outside? It is so important to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. The sun’s UV radiation can cause cataracts, benign growths on the eye’s surface and cancer on the eyelids. Sunglasses can also provide blue light protection and help with light sensitivity. Don’t forget to wear your sunglasses! 😎

Some studies show that blinking may help our brain digest information.

Let us help you get those twinkly eyes!

Don’t forget to blink! We all blink significantly less when we are in front of a screen. This can lead to symptoms of dry eyes and digital eye strain. Full and complete blinks will give comfort and clarity throughout your day.

Don't wait until a street sign looks blurry, or you have trouble seeing objects close up. In addition to detecting vision changes, regular eye exams can also detect life-threatening conditions like a brain tumor and high cholesterol.

May is...

What are your plans to celebrate Mother's Day this weekend?

This is why it's so important to have regular eye exams! Have you scheduled your annual exam?

Many babies have blue eyes at birth, but as the irises gain pigment the eyes can darken and change.

For better eye sight, don't miss your recall dates!

The 20 - 20 - 20 rule. Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Keep this in mind to help reduce eye strain caused by increased screen time.

School-age children spend a lot of time in recreational activities that require good vision. After-school team sports or playing in the backyard aren't as fun if you can't see well!

UV exposure doesn't just come from the sun!

Symptoms Include:
Hazy or blurred vision.
The appearance of rainbow-colored circles around bright lights.
Severe eye and head pain.
Nausea or vomiting (accompanying severe eye pain)
Sudden sight loss.

April is Earth month! We are helping by recycling our used contact lenses. Our office has already recycled 4000+ blister packs and we are about to send in another full box! A year supply of daily lenses can add up quickly and end up in landfill or down the drain. Help us and the Earth by bringing in yours today!
