🫢What a scary statistic!

Don’t wait for symptoms to appear—glaucoma often has none. In fact, more than 50% of people with glaucoma don’t know they have it because there are no noticeable warning signs. If you’re over 60, have a family history of glaucoma, or have conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease, your risk may be higher. Protect your vision—call Vision Center South today to schedule your annual eye exam.

Celebrating over 20 years of eye-care excellence with Travis Wright, Regional Director of Ophthalmology ✨

From helping patients see the world more clearly to setting the standard for care—what a journey it’s been. When Travis started, he had hair on his head… now, as you can see, that hair just migrated south and settled comfortably on his face 😄

Here’s to decades of sharp vision, steady hands, and legendary expertise. Cheers to you, Travis! 🎉

Glaucoma is the second leading cause of vision loss and blindness, and it often develops without noticeable symptoms. The CDC reports that more than 3 million people in the U.S. are currently affected—a number projected to grow to 4.2 million by 2030. The best defense is early detection, which starts with regular eye exams. Protect your vision by making your eye health a priority.
