February is AMD & Low Vision Awareness Month

But what is low vision?
Low vision means having vision loss that can’t be fully corrected with glasses, contacts, or surgery. It’s often caused by age-related eye conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, and other degenerative eye diseases.

Low vision can change how people experience everyday life. Things that once felt simple—reading, driving, recognizing faces, or adjusting to different lighting—may become more challenging. Over time, this can affect confidence and independence.

Some common signs of low vision include:

✨Blurry or distorted vision

✨Missing words or lines while reading

✨Sensitivity to glare or bright lights

✨Difficulty recognizing faces

✨Trouble seeing at night

✨Difficulty adjusting to changes in lighting

✨Challenges with depth perception or color recognition

At North Shore Eye Health & Wellness, we work with patients with low vision every day. Our team is here to listen, support, and help you navigate changes in your vision with care and understanding.

If you or someone you love is experiencing symptoms of low vision, we encourage you to reach out. Call (262) 421-4412 to schedule an exam and take the next step with confidence.

February is AMD & Low Vision Awareness Month 👁️💙

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of irreversible vision loss in adults over 60. It affects the macula, the part of the retina responsible for central vision used for reading, driving, and recognizing faces.

In early stages, AMD may not cause noticeable vision changes. As it progresses, central vision can become blurred or distorted, while peripheral vision often remains.

While there is no cure, early detection and regular eye exams can help protect the vision you have.

👉 If you notice changes in your vision, contact our office at (262) 421-4412 today.

Stress doesn’t just affect your mind... it can affect your eyes, too 👀

When you’re stressed, your body releases hormones like adrenaline that change how blood flows and how your eyes respond. Over time, this can lead to symptoms like eye strain, blurry vision, light sensitivity, dry eyes, headaches, or even eyelid twitching.

Long periods of stress and increased screen time can also worsen digital eye strain, making discomfort even more noticeable in today’s always-connected world.

Taking care of your overall wellness through rest, stress management, and healthy screen habits plays an important role in supporting your vision. And if eye discomfort or vision changes persist, an eye exam can help identify the cause and get you back to seeing comfortably.

Your eyes work hard for you, so don’t forget to care for them!

With January as Glaucoma Awareness Month, it allows us to focus on a leading cause of irreversible vision loss that often goes undetected until damage has already occurred.

Glaucoma is known as the “silent thief of sight” because it can progress slowly and without noticeable symptoms, making awareness and routine eye care essential.

What patients should know about glaucoma:

✨Glaucoma often has no early warning signs, and up to 40% of vision can be lost before changes are noticed
✨Vision loss from glaucoma is permanent and typically begins with peripheral (side) vision, which is easy to miss without testing
✨It accounts for 9–12% of blindness worldwide, affecting millions of people globally
✨Anyone can develop glaucoma, regardless of age, especially those with a family history, diabetes, or prior eye injury
✨There are two main types of glaucoma: open-angle (most common and slow-progressing) and angle-closure (less common but more urgent)

A regular comprehensive eye exam can identify glaucoma before significant vision loss occurs.

If it’s been a while since your last exam, now is the time to schedule one. You can call our office (262) 421-4412 today!

❓What are CRT lenses?

Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT), also known as ortho-K, is a non-surgical way to correct nearsightedness by gently reshaping the cornea while you sleep. These custom-designed lenses are worn overnight and removed in the morning so that you can enjoy clear, natural daytime vision without glasses or contact lenses!

What more you should know:

✔️ FDA-approved for overnight wear
✔️ Custom fit for each eye
✔️ Results can last up to 72 hours w/ consistent use.
✔️ A great option for kids, teens, and adults with low myopia

Interested in seeing if CRT is right for you or your child? Ask our team during your next comprehensive eye exam or call our office at (262) 421-4412 today!

Babies don’t see the world in full color right away!

At birth, their eyes are still developing, and the photoreceptors responsible for color vision aren’t strong enough yet. Over the first few months, color vision gradually improves, and around 2 months old they are starting to tell red and green apart. Then, by around 5 months old, most babies have full color perception.

Because so much learning happens through vision, early visual development is incredibly important. That’s why our office participates in InfantSEE® Exams. A free, government-supported program that provides comprehensive eye exams for infants 6–12 months old.

Early eye care helps set the foundation for healthy vision and success as your child grows. Call our office at (262) 421-4412 to schedule your little ones exam today!

Did you know that up to 80% of learning happens through the eyes? 👀📚

That means strong vision skills are essential for reading, writing, focusing, and feeling confident in the classroom.

When skills like eye tracking, focusing, or coordination aren’t working as efficiently as they should, school can feel harder and more frustrating for kids. Vision therapy helps strengthen these skills through fun, guided exercises designed to support how the eyes and brain work together.

For many children, this can mean improved focus, smoother reading, and greater confidence at school. Vision therapy is a valuable resource that helps make learning feel easier and more successful.

January is Glaucoma Awareness Month, and as we head into the second day of the new year, it’s a great reminder to make your eye health a priority in 2026!

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of vision loss in the United Statesand what makes it especially concerning is that up to half of people with glaucoma don’t know they have it. That’s because glaucoma often has no early warning signs.

The only way to detect it is through a comprehensive dilated eye exam. While there’s no cure, early detection and treatment can help slow or prevent vision loss.

You may be at a higher risk if you:
• Are over age 60
• Are Black/African American over age 40
• Are Asian American
• Are Hispanic/Latino
• Have a family history of glaucoma

As you set goals for the new year, don’t forget your vision. Scheduling routine eye exams can make all the difference.

Call us today at (262) 421-4412 to take the next step toward protecting your sight!
