Dry eyes are very common during the winter. Cold temperatures and dry indoor air can cause your tear film to evaporate more quickly. This often leads to redness, irritation, and uncomfortable dryness.

Don’t let winter be harsh on your eyes. Doctors at Capitol Eye Care Center optometry are here to help so you can enjoy every winter adventure ahead. Ask us about dry eye treatment.

Cold winter air and indoor heating can reduce the moisture in your eyes, leading to symptoms like dryness, redness, and irritation. These changes are common during the colder months because low humidity and wind can cause tears to evaporate more quickly.

Understanding the cause of dry eyes is the first step toward relief. At Capitol Eye Care Center, we offer in-house dry eye therapy including NuLids, a gentle in-office treatment that helps improve eyelid health and tear stability.

Tired of switching between different pairs of glasses? Many people don’t know that contact lenses can be made to help you see clearly at every distance, whether you’re driving, working on the computer, or reading.

Multifocal contact lenses can make daily life easier and more comfortable. They aren’t the right choice for everyone, but the doctors at Capitol Eye Care Center can help you find out if they’re a good option for you.

According to some sources, guinea pigs can see around 33 images per second, compared to about 22 for humans. This quick visual processing helps prevent blurred vision when they turn their heads, allowing them to see the world clearly even in motion.

While exact numbers may vary, it’s a fun reminder of how incredible animal vision can be.

The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recognizes November as American Diabetes Month. Diabetes can affect your eyes in several ways. High blood sugar can damage the small blood vessels in the retina, leading to diabetic retinopathy, which is a direct cause of vision loss.

It also increases the risk of glaucoma, because diabetes can change blood flow and pressure inside the eye, affecting the optic nerve over time. In addition, high blood sugar can cause the lens to swell and become cloudy, raising the risk of cataracts.

These conditions often develop slowly and without early symptoms. That’s why an annual comprehensive eye exam is one of the most important steps in protecting your vision and detecting changes early.

At Capitol Eye Care Center, our doctors and staff care deeply about your vision and are here to help you keep your eyes healthy for years to come.
