Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, which carries images from your eye to the brain. Glaucoma can occur in one or both eyes. Early diagnosis is the key to treating glaucoma and saving your vision.

Most glaucoma patients are unaware that they have lost some vision. Elderly people, who are at highest risk for glaucoma, often attribute vision loss to “just growing old.” Vision loss from glaucoma is silent, slow, and irreversible — but it is treatable.

January is Glaucoma Awareness Month. Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of sight because it usually has no early symptoms. A comprehensive eye exam is the only way to detect it. Have you booked yours?

Did your family get a Virtual Reality headset for the holiday? Dry eye, digital eye fatigue, and headaches can occur when VR is used without proper visual support. If your child (or spouse!) complains of discomfort, schedule an eye exam so we can evaluate their visual system.

VR technology is exciting, but it can put stress on your child’s developing eyes. We recommend short sessions of 15 minutes or less with long rest breaks in between. Start slow and watch out for headaches. Their eye health is more important than killing zombies!
