👁️ July is Dry Eye Awareness Month! 👁️
At Halsted Eye Boutique and Eye See Ravenswood, we’re passionate about helping you see clearly and feel comfortable doing it. That’s why we’re using this month to shed light on a condition that affects millions—but often goes untreated: Dry Eye Disease.

🔬 Let’s Talk Facts:
➡️ Over 16 million Americans have been diagnosed with dry eye, but the real number may be much higher due to underreporting.
➡️ It affects all ages, but it’s especially common in adults over 50, contact lens wearers, and people who spend long hours on screens.
➡️ Common symptoms include:
• Burning or stinging
• Blurry vision that fluctuates
• Redness or irritation
• Sensitivity to light
• The feeling that something’s in your eye

😣 If these sound familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to suffer silently.

✨ What Makes Us Different?
We take dry eye seriously. At both of our practices, we’ve invested in the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies, allowing us to pinpoint the cause of your symptoms and design a personalized treatment plan.

🌿 We believe in treating the whole person—not just the eyes. That’s why we also offer guidance on lifestyle, screen-time ergonomics, diet, and hydration to support long-term ocular health.

📆 This month is the perfect time to schedule your dry eye evaluation—whether you’re experiencing symptoms now or want to stay ahead of them. Early intervention can make a huge difference.

👁️💪 June is Men’s Health Month — and that includes eye health, too!

Men are less likely to schedule routine eye exams… but more likely to develop certain eye conditions, including:
• Color blindness (affects 1 in 12 men!)
• Diabetic retinopathy
• UV-related eye damage from outdoor work or sports
• Eye injuries (power tools, sports, or even grilling mishaps — we see it all 😎)

Here’s how men can take charge of their vision:
✅ Wear 100% UV-blocking sunglasses
✅ Take breaks from screens (20-20-20 rule!)
✅ Prioritize yearly eye exams
✅ Know your family history — especially for glaucoma or macular degeneration
✅ Don’t ignore blurry vision, dry eyes, or floaters

Your vision plays a huge role in your quality of life — at work, on the road, and on the field. Take care of it.

Need to schedule an exam? We’ve got you covered. 🧑‍⚕️👓

👁️ Does your vision look like this?
Do you ever notice tiny squiggly lines, spots, or “floaters” drifting across your field of vision?

These are called muscae volitantes, Latin for “flying flies” — and they’re more common than you think.

✨ Floaters are caused by tiny clumps of gel or cells inside the vitreous (the clear, gel-like substance that fills your eye). As we age, the vitreous can shrink and become more stringy, casting shadows on your retina that appear as floaters.

They’re usually harmless — but a sudden increase in floaters, flashes of light, or a curtain-like shadow over your vision can be a sign of something more serious, like a retinal tear or detachment.

💬 Have questions or concerns?

👁️ STYES HAPPEN — LET’S TREAT THEM FAST 👁️

A stye (also called a hordeolum) is a small, painful bump that forms on the eyelid when an oil gland becomes infected. They’re common — and very treatable — but definitely uncomfortable!

🔍 Risk Factors:
• Touching or rubbing eyes with unclean hands
• Using expired or contaminated eye makeup
• Not cleaning contact lenses properly
• Chronic conditions like blepharitis or rosacea

💡 How to Avoid Them:
✔️ Wash your hands frequently
✔️ Remove makeup nightly
✔️ Disinfect contact lenses as directed
✔️ Avoid sharing cosmetics or eye tools

💊 How to Treat at Home:
• Apply warm compresses several times a day
• Keep the area clean and makeup-free
• Avoid squeezing or popping the stye

✨ How We Treat Them In-Office:
At Halsted Eye Boutique and Eye See Ravenswood, we offer quick and effective relief with treatments like:
✅ In-office drainage (when needed)
✅ Prescription eye drops or ointments
✅ Personalized hygiene plans to prevent recurrence

Don’t let a stye get in the way of your day — we’re here to help you see (and feel) better fast. 👁️💙

👁️✨ Monday Motivation: Set Your “Eyes” Goals! ✨👁️
Welcome to the second week of June! It’s the perfect time to hit refresh—not just on your mindset, but on your eye health goals too. Your eyes work hard every day… so let’s make sure we’re taking care of them like they deserve! 💙

Here are 6 simple but powerful ways to keep your eyes happy, hydrated, and protected this week:

💧 Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate – Your eyes rely on water to stay lubricated and focused. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day to prevent dryness and fatigue.

🕶️ Sunglasses aren’t just a summer trend – They’re your first line of defense against harmful UV rays. Look for 100% UVA/UVB protection—and wear them even when it’s cloudy!

🖥️ Give your screen time a break – Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. It helps reduce digital eye strain and keeps your vision feeling refreshed.

🥦 Eat with your eyes in mind – Add more leafy greens, citrus fruits, fish rich in omega-3s, and carrots into your meals. These nutrients are vital for long-term eye health.

💤 Sleep is eye care, too – Your eyes heal and refresh overnight. Skimping on sleep? You’ll feel it in the form of redness, dryness, or twitching.

👁️ Lubricate when needed – Dry, itchy eyes from AC or screen time? Keep preservative-free artificial tears on hand to soothe and protect your eyes during long days.

📅 This week, we challenge you to set at least one “eyes” goal—and stick to it. Small steps = brighter vision ahead.
