February is Low Vision Awareness Month. One cause of low vision is glaucoma. Worldwide, an estimated 80 million people have glaucoma; 4.5 million of those will eventually be blinded by the disease. Early detection and treatment are key to maintaining healthy vision.

Proper contact lens hygiene matters. Always wash your hands, use fresh solution, and never clean lenses with tap water. Small habits make a big difference for eye health.

01/28/2026

Swimming with contact lenses in is a big NO! Pools, lakes, and oceans expose lenses to bacteria that can cause painful infections. Healthy pivot: Ask us about prescription swim goggles instead.

01/26/2026

To set the record straight: Daily contact lenses are meant for One Day Only. Re-wearing them increases your risk of serious eye infections. So don’t do it! Fresh lenses every morning protect your vision and eye health.

Making goals for 2026? Add a “Don’t Do” list for your eyes and ditch any bad vision habits. Example? Skipping annual eye exams can mean missing early signs of glaucoma, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Prevention starts with a comprehensive exam.

01/21/2026

Don’t let glaucoma, the Silent Thief of Sight, steal your vision! The best way to identify and treat glaucoma is through a regular comprehensive eye exam with your optometrist. Have you scheduled your annual exam yet?

How does vision loss sneak up on people with glaucoma? It’s a gradual loss, starting with peripheral vision. People compensate without realizing it. That’s how glaucoma can progress for years, causing permanent vision loss — and it’s why regular eye exams are crucial.

01/16/2026

Did you know? Glaucoma risk increases with age. 10% of people age 75 or older have glaucoma, but half of them don’t even know it yet. Call us today to schedule your annual eye exam, which includes a glaucoma screening.

01/14/2026

Anyone at any age can be affected by glaucoma. However, African, Asian, and Latino populations are at highest risk. Knowledge is power: African Americans are 6 to 8 times more likely to develop glaucoma than Caucasians and tend to get it 10 years sooner than other ethnicities.

01/13/2026

With glaucoma, family history matters. If your parent, sibling, or child has glaucoma, your risk is higher. Let your optometrist know so we can monitor your eye health even more closely. Contact us to schedule your annual eye exam today!

01/09/2026

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.

01/07/2026

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.
