🎆 June is Fireworks Eye Safety Month!

With the 4th of July just around the corner, we'd like to encourage everyone to prioritize their eye safety. Fireworks and sparklers can cause serious eye injuries—but the good news is, most are preventable.

Wear proper eye protection when handling fireworks and keep children at a safe distance--or better yet, leave the displays to the pros and enjoy the show from afar! 🤩
