👓 Did You Know?
The word optometry comes from two Greek roots:
“optos” (ὀπτός), meaning seen or visible
“metron” (μέτρον), meaning measure

Put together, optometry literally means “to measure what is seen.”

That idea dates back centuries, but today it represents much more than just measuring eyesight. Modern optometry evaluates how your eyes focus, move, work together, and respond to light—often detecting changes before symptoms appear.
It’s not just about clearer vision. It’s about precise measurement, early detection, and lifelong eye health.

📅 On This Day in History – January 8

In 1894, the first successful contact lens prototype was developed. Early lenses were made of glass and covered the entire eye—uncomfortable by today’s standards, but revolutionary at the time.

That breakthrough paved the way for the lightweight, breathable contact lenses millions rely on today.

From glasses… to contacts… to advanced imaging that can detect eye changes before you notice symptoms—eye care has come a long way.

And your vision deserves to keep up with the science.

Your vision doesn’t usually change overnight.

It shifts gradually as your brain’s visual cortex compensates for small refractive changes—often masking vision loss before you’re consciously aware of it. Squinting becomes routine. Eye strain feels normal.

That’s why regular eye exams matter—even when everything seems fine. They detect subtle changes your brain has already learned to work around.

The week between Christmas and New Year’s doesn’t exist.
We’re all just eating leftovers, popcorn, and staring at screens like, “What day is it?” 👀🍿

If your eyes are feeling tired or things look a little blurry, it might be all that holiday scrolling, streaming, and movie marathons.
Use this in-between week to give your eyes some love and start the new year seeing clearly.

We hope your Christmas is filled with joy, comfort, and special moments with those you love. Thank you for being part of our B. Doty family—we’re grateful for you today and always.

🎄 December 23 | It’s Festivus for the Rest of Us! 👀

Today we celebrate Festivus—a holiday all about honesty, simplicity, and airing of grievances. And if your current glasses aren’t cutting it anymore… your eyes may have a grievance of their own.

If street signs look fuzzy or your screen feels extra strained, it might be time to settle things with an eye exam.

Because clear vision should be a celebration.

No pole required.

🎄✨ Did you know Christmas lights are a workout for your eyes?

All that blinking, twinkling, and sparkling forces your pupils to constantly adjust. It’s basically holiday cardio for your vision — festive, fun, and a little exhausting if your eyes are already tired.
So if you find yourself squinting at the lights… your eyes are just keeping up with the season. 👀🎅

🎅👓 Did you know Santa would definitely need glasses?

Reading millions of letters, checking his list twice, and flying through the night? That’s a lot of near, far, and nighttime vision. If Santa were coming in for an eye exam, progressives, anti-reflective lenses, and night-driving clarity would be at the top of his wish list.

Even Santa knows — clear vision makes everything run smoother. 👀✨

🎄🦌 Did you know reindeer can see ultraviolet light?

While everything looks white to us in winter, reindeer see a whole different picture. Their eyes can detect ultraviolet light, which helps them spot predators and food against snowy landscapes — even during the dark Arctic winters.

So when Santa’s team is flying on Christmas Eve, they’re not just magical… they’ve got built-in winter vision superpowers. 👀✨🎅

🖼️ Your brain removes your nose from your vision.

Believe it or not, you can technically see your nose all the time — your brain just chooses to ignore it. This automatic “editing” keeps your focus clear and your field of view uncluttered, working like a built-in Photoshop tool that hides anything that isn’t useful.

Your brain filters more than you realize… so you can keep your eyes on what matters. 👀✨

🌈 You have a built-in rainbow detector.
Your eyes create millions of colors using just three types of cone cells — think of them as your own three-pixel color-mixing team.

Red, green, and blue signals blend together to help you see every sunset, holiday light display, and winter sky in full brilliance.

Your eyes really are the original color creators. 👀✨🌈
