Want to wear cool contact lenses with your Halloween costume? Decorative lenses are a fun way to change your look. But contacts aren't one-size-fits-all and require proper care and a prescription.

Here are some tips to keep your eyes safe:
Have an in-person comprehensive eye examination to get fitted for the right contacts.
Contact lenses are a medical device. Make sure your prescription is current.
Never buy your lenses from retail outlets or online sites that don't require a prescription.
Don't share lenses with friends; a poor fit or germs can damage your eyes.
No matter how tired you are after the Halloween festivities, do not sleep in your contacts and give your eyes a break.
See your doctor of optometry immediately if you experience redness, pain, irritation or blurred vision while wearing your lenses.

The AOA recommends contact lens wearers take proper steps to maintain a consistent hygiene routine, including:

Washing and drying hands before handling contact lenses.
Carefully and regularly using cleaning solution to rub the lenses with fingers and rinsing thoroughly before soaking lenses overnight in a sufficient multi-purpose disinfectant solution.
Storing lenses in the proper lens storage case and replacing your case every three months; in addition cases should be rubbed with clean fingers, rinsed with solution, dried with a tissue, and stored upside down every night.
Using fresh solution to clean and store contact lenses-never re-use old solution.
Using products recommended by your eye doctor to clean and disinfect your lenses.
Always following the recommended contact lens replacement schedule prescribed by your eye doctor.
Removing contact lenses before exposing them to water.

Aging and Eye Health: What You Need to Know

The older we get, the more our eyesight tends to change.
As we age, our vision can undergo significant changes, ranging from the subtle to the sight-threatening. Early detection of age-related vision issues is crucial for effective management, which is why we urge our older patients to make regular eye exams a top priority. While aging may bring about benign visual adjustments, it can also present more concerning challenges.

Common Age-Related Vision Changes

Many of the changes we can experience in our vision as we age are inconvenient but manageable:

Dulled Color Perception: Aging can cause colors to appear less vibrant or slightly yellowish.
Reduced Tear Production: Older eyes produce fewer tears, often leading to dry eye symptoms. Tears play a vital role in maintaining eye health and clear vision.
Increased Lighting Needs: Aging eyes require more light to see clearly.
Presbyopia: Around age 45, many adults develop presbyopia, making it difficult to focus on close objects. Reading glasses, bifocals, or transition lenses may be necessary.
Heightened Glare Sensitivity: Glare can become bothersome, particularly while driving. Polarized lenses can help by reducing glare.

Age and Sight-Threatening Eye Conditions
While these age-related visual changes can be frustrating, age is often the greatest risk factor for more serious sight-threatening conditions. These include:

Retinal Detachment
Macular Degeneration
Diabetic Retinopathy
Glaucoma
Cataracts

Although some of these conditions are irreversible, advancements in medicine and technology have improved treatment options and prognoses. Early diagnosis remains paramount, emphasizing the critical role of regular eye exams.

Maintaining Healthy Eyes
In addition to scheduled eye exams, proactive measures can be taken to safeguard eye health. Wearing UV-blocking sunglasses whenever outdoors, irrespective of the season, is an excellent preventive practice. A healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, a balanced diet rich in nutrients, and avoidance of habits like smoking can significantly reduce the risk of eye diseases, while also benefiting overall well-being.

To alleviate short-term discomfort, especially for those who spend significant time on screens, consider implementing the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes of screen use, take a 20-second break to focus on something at least 20 feet away. This simple habit can help alleviate eye strain.

Our Commitment to Your Lifelong Vision Health
We cannot stress enough the importance of annual eye exams, particularly for those over 40. If it has been more than a year since your last visit, we encourage you to schedule an appointment at our office. Your vision health is our top priority, and we look forward to providing you with the best care possible.
