Kids need eye exams because healthy vision is essential for their learning, development, and overall well-being. Here are the main reasons:

1. Detect vision problems early

Children often don’t realize they have blurry or double vision because they assume what they see is “normal.”

Issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism can be caught early and corrected with glasses.

2. Support learning and school performance

About 80% of classroom learning is visual (reading, writing, seeing the board).

Poor vision can look like trouble paying attention or learning difficulties.

3. Check eye health and development

Exams can detect more than just blurry vision—they can reveal eye conditions like lazy eye (amblyopia), crossed eyes (strabismus), or even rare but serious diseases.

Early detection makes treatment more effective.

4. Prevent long-term problems

If vision issues go uncorrected during the critical years of eye development, they can become permanent.

Timely intervention ensures better lifelong eye health.

5. Kids can’t always speak up about vision problems

Young children may not know how to describe their vision issues.

Regular exams provide reassurance for parents and doctors.

👉 In short: Eye exams help ensure kids can see clearly, learn effectively, and stay healthy.

Do you know about Silhouette Eyeglasses?

Silhouette glasses are considered special because they’re quite different from most traditional eyewear brands. Here are the key things that make them stand out:

1. Rimless & Ultra-Light Design
Silhouette is famous for pioneering rimless glasses in the 1960s.
Their frames are some of the lightest in the world (some weigh less than 2 grams).
They use a screwless and hinge-less design, meaning fewer moving parts and very minimalist aesthetics.

2. Comfort & Fit
Because of their featherlight weight and flexible materials (like high-tech titanium), they’re extremely comfortable to wear for long periods.
They’re designed to “disappear” on the face, so wearers often forget they even have them on.

3. Customization
Silhouette allows a high level of customization: different lens shapes, sizes, colors, and finishes.
This makes them popular with people who want glasses tailored to their face rather than a one-size-fits-all frame.

4. Quality & Durability
Made in Austria with strict quality control.
Titanium and SPX (a durable, lightweight plastic) resist corrosion and breakage better than typical eyewear materials.

5. Prestige & Style
They’re a bit of a status symbol—discreet but recognized by people “in the know.”
Worn by celebrities, professionals, and even NASA astronauts (yes, NASA has used Silhouette glasses in space missions because of their weight and durability).

So, their specialness is a mix of engineering innovation, comfort, and understated luxury.

Did you know that Dr. Natalia Chramiec is our Low Vision Specialist?

Living with Low Vision: Seeing the World Differently

Low vision doesn’t mean total blindness—it means having a level of sight that can’t be fully corrected with glasses, contacts, or surgery. Millions of people around the world live with low vision, and while it can bring challenges, it doesn’t mean giving up independence or joy.

What Causes Low Vision?
Conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, or diabetic retinopathy are common reasons someone might develop low vision. Sometimes it happens with age, but it can affect people at any stage of life.

Daily Life with Low Vision
Simple tasks—like reading, cooking, or finding your way in new places—may take extra effort. But with the right tools, people with low vision can still thrive. Magnifiers, screen readers, voice-activated technology, and good lighting can make a huge difference.

Final Thought
Low vision changes how a person sees the world—but it doesn’t change their place in it. With awareness, support, and accessible design, we can make life easier and more inclusive for everyone.

September is Health Aging Month!

Finding it harder to read that screen up close? Around age 40, most people will start to experience “presbyopia” which literally means “aging eye.”

Presbyopia is an age-related condition where the eye’s lens doesn’t change shape as easily as it once did. Presbyopia symptoms include difficulty reading or seeing things at close range.
