Spring causing eye irritation?

It might be allergies or dry eye.

Allergies often lead to watery, itchy, and red eyes, while dry eye feels more like dryness, grittiness, or burning. Knowing the difference is important for proper care.

Unsure? Schedule an eye exam today to get the relief you need.

🔬 Women’s History Month Feature: Dr. A. Estelle Glancy

I came across this great image of Dr. Anna Estelle Glancy, often called the “First Lady of Optics.”

Born in 1883, Glancy earned a PhD in astronomy before applying her mathematical brilliance to ophthalmic optics. She worked for American Optical, where she became one of the most influential lens designers of her time.

Her work helped advance:
👓 Ophthalmic lens design
🔬 Optical instrumentation
📏 Tools used to verify lenses in optical labs

At a time when very few women worked in science or engineering, Dr. Glancy was helping shape the optical technology that millions of people rely on today.

Sometimes the people who quietly move a profession forward don’t always make the front page—but their impact is everywhere.

A great reminder during Women’s History Month to recognize the pioneers who helped build the field of optics.

Chopping onions is like attending a tearjerker movie premiere in the kitchen. 🧅😭

The culprit behind this phenomenon is syn-propanethial-S-oxide, a compound released when onions are cut, which triggers our tear ducts.

💡 To avoid the waterworks, lay down a wet paper towel on your cutting board. This trick draws the tear-inducing compound towards the moist paper towel instead of your eyes.

👶 Is your little one seeing clearly? 👀 While infants and toddlers may not be able to voice vision troubles, there are subtle signs to watch for.

Does your child constantly rub their eyes? Do they avoid bright lights? These cues could indicate a need for an eye check. Stay proactive in safeguarding their vision and book an appointment if you notice these signs.

Dealing with skepticism over new recommendations from your eye doctor, like using a warm compress, is normal. 🤔

A warm compress can be a game-changer for relieving dryness, reducing eye fatigue, and improving overall eye health. It can enhance blood circulation around the eyes, ease muscle tension, and improve eye comfort.

Here's how to use a warm compress:

💧 Soak a clean cloth in warm water.
🧼 Gently squeeze out excess water.
😌 Close your eyes and place the warm cloth over them for 5-10 minutes.
⏰ Repeat this process several times a day for optimal results.
