The excessive use of digital devices is taking a toll on our eyes and vision. Save your vision by taking a break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Sit at least arm's length away from your screen and make sure to adjust screen brightness to match the lighting around you to avoid eye strain. That said, the most important thing you can do is to get your eyes examined regularly.

When lenses are put to rest in fresh solution, the solution collects all the bacteria from the lenses. Reusing or “topping off” the solution allows bacteria to grow and fester on the lenses—a big no-no if you want to maintain healthy eyes and vision. Make sure you dispose of lens solution on a daily basis and replace your lens case every 3-4 months!
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of vision loss and blindness worldwide. This eye disease, also known as the "sneak thief of sight", shows no symptoms early on. This is why the majority of those with early-stage glaucoma don’t know they have it. A comprehensive dilated eye exam is the only way to detect this eye disease—caught early, glaucoma can be managed and eyesight saved.
Today we celebrate the braille system that enables millions of blind and visually impaired people around the world to read and write through touch. World Braille Day marks the birthday of Louis Braille, born on January 4th, 1809. He was blinded at a young age following an accident, which later inspired him to develop a system of tactile code enabling blind people to read and write quickly and efficiently.

Do you ever SLEEP with your contacts on? Be careful, as it can make your eyes more vulnerable to infections. Moreover, wearing them for extended periods of time dries out your eyes and lenses which can cause damage when removing them. Do your eyes a favor and let them breathe by removing your contacts before going to bed.
