For nine years, a pediatric patient tilted his head just to see clearly. No one knew why and over time, it began affecting how he moved and held his body.

During a specialized exam for children with special needs, one of our doctors noticed that one of the patient's eyes sat slightly higher than the other. A prism lens was prescribed and the change was immediate. The child straightened his head and could finally move comfortably.

“She’s the best. My son needed more than a typical eye exam, and the doctor and staff provided that. As a parent, seeing him finally walk without the tilt is everything.”

With Doctors’ Day approaching, take a moment to thank a doctor who’s made a difference or consider donating to help more patients like this get the care they deserve. 💙

Your sight matters. 👁️

During Glaucoma Awareness Week, the UEC is highlighting the importance of early detection and routine eye exams. Glaucoma can progress silently, but timely diagnosis can help protect vision.

Schedule an eye exam and help spread awareness.

❄️ Cold weather is here! Protect your eyes with these 3 simple tips:

Wear Protective Eyewear – Sunglasses or goggles help shield your eyes from cold, wind, and UV rays reflecting off snow.

Use Preservative-Free Lubricating Drops – Keep eyes comfortable when chilly air dries them out.

Add a Humidifier Indoors – Help reduce dry-eye symptoms caused by indoor heating.

Your eyes will thank you! 👀

🔬 New research from SUNY College of Optometry, led by Dr. Jose-Manuel Alonso, suggests myopia (nearsightedness) may be influenced not just by screen time but by how children use their eyes indoors, especially in dim lighting.
