Dear Chicago Arbor Eye Institute dads, all dads out there, father figures, and those who love their dad….
Happy Father’s Day!

Thanks for showing us strength, ridding us of fear,
Staying calm and bringing cheer.

Thank you for your teaching,
And for your selective preaching.

Thanks for not getting too mad,
Even on days when others were really bad.

Thank you for playing ball and riding bikes,
And for enjoying nature, fishing and going on hikes.

Thank you for your delicious grilling,
And for making time for well-deserved chilling.

Thank you for being on the Chicago Arbor team,
As we all work together to fulfill our dream!

Thanks for your ongoing positive energy, teamwork and cheer,
You win for best dad of the year!

Are you at ASCRS? If so, stop by one of Dr. Lubeck’s poster, paper, teaching sessions. He’s doing an instructional course on Saturday at 3:30 pm on Canaloplasty technique combined with channelography and on MIGS for the Comprehensive Ophthalmologist. On Sunday at 10 am, he’s giving a course on phacoemulsification and cataract removal in eyes with preexisting posterior capsular defects. In addition, visit the paper and poster section to read up on his research results on Ab-interno canalaplasty among other topics. Thank you to Dr. Lubeck and his collaborators and research teams for continuing to innovate to the advance care to our patients. Thank you also for teaching others the skills to help other patients near and far. Safe travels and happy teaching and learning to all!

What is a Solar Eclipse?
A Solar Eclipse occurs when the moon positions itself between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow over Earth.
🌑
When will Illinois be experiencing a Solar Eclipse?
Seven years after the 2017 total eclipse, another total solar eclipse will be visible over 128 miles of Illinois the afternoon of April 8, 2024. The next total solar eclipse visible in the United States won’t be until 2044.
🌞
Types of Solar Eclipses
There are four different types of solar eclipse depending on the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned at the time of the event: 1) Total Solar Eclipse: The sun is fully obscured by the moon. 2) Partial Solar Eclipse: The moon doesn’t fully block the sun so only a portion of the sun is obscured. 3) Annular Solar Eclipse: The moon is centered in front of the sun but doesn’t cover the entirety of the surface (as seen in a total solar eclipse). A “ring of fire” shines around the moon. 4) Hybrid Solar Eclipse: The rarest solar eclipse is a combination of a total and annular eclipse (sometimes known as an A-T eclipse) and is produced when the moon’s shadow moves across Earth. These begin as one type of eclipse and transition to another.
🌑
Can viewing a Solar Eclipse hurt my eyes?
Yes! Watching a solar eclipse is a memorable experience, but looking directly at the sun can seriously damage your eyes. Staring at the sun for even a short time without wearing the right eye protection can damage your retina permanently. It can even cause blindness, called solar retinopathy.
🌞
How can I protect my eyes?
There is only one safe way to look directly at the sun, whether during an eclipse or not: through special-purpose solar filters. These solar filters are used in “eclipse glasses” or in hand-held solar viewers. They must meet a very specific worldwide standard known as ISO 12312-2.
