New research is showing that cataracts can increase feelings of depression. Furthermore, simply getting cataract treatment can alleviate the related depression.

January is Glaucoma Awareness Month—a crucial time to understand this silent neurodegenerative eye condition. Our eye pressures tend to be higher in the winter months than the summer ones, and that alone is a risk factor for glaucoma. Lack of daily exercise is another common risk factor. With over 4 million Americans affected, early detection is key to preserving your vision.
