Spending time outdoors and enjoying sunlight can be beneficial when done in moderation. However, it is important to remember that looking directly at the sun can cause serious damage to the retina.

“Never look directly at the sun. Instead, look at the sunflower.” - Vera Nazarian

Protect your vision by enjoying the sunshine safely with proper eye protection such as sunglasses, hats, and shade.

Ask Me Anything About Cataracts!

Drop your questions in the comments or send us a message!

Cataracts are a clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which sits behind the iris and pupil. Think of it like a window that gradually becomes frosted or foggy over time.

Q: Are cataracts easy to fix?
The good news is that cataracts are very treatable. When they start interfering with daily activities, surgery can remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial one. It’s one of the most common and successful surgeries performed today, usually done as an outpatient procedure with excellent results.

Flash photo turned your eyes red? Here’s the science behind it.

That glow is actually your retina — the layer at the back of your eye that’s filled with tiny blood vessels delivering nutrients to keep your vision healthy.

A small reminder that your eyes are doing a lot of work behind the scenes.

Need to check in on yours? We’re here for your next exam.

Meet Dr. Peggy Driesen

Dr. Peggy grew up in Dodge City, Kansas, studied at Newman University, and later earned her Doctor of Optometry from the University of Houston College of Optometry. She has been caring for patients at Driesen Eye Center since its founding in 1995 and continues to bring exceptional knowledge, compassion, and experience to every exam.

She believes that truly understanding a patient’s daily life is essential to providing the best care. Whether someone spends hours at a computer or drives long distances for work, she values the conversations that offer a glimpse into each person’s world. She shares, “I have several couples that come in together year after year, and I love seeing this bond and their commitment to each other.”

A fun fact about Dr. Peggy: she is married to an optometrist, and her youngest daughter is studying to become one.

“I love being an optometrist and helping people problem-solve their vision and eye issues,” she says.

Did you know your diet can protect your eyes?

Lutein is a nutrient found in plants that your eyes love. It gathers in the retina and macula (the parts of your eye that help you see clearly) and works like a natural filter, protecting your vision from sunlight and everyday stress.

Why it matters:
• Helps lower the risk of macular degeneration and cataracts
• Supports brain health—like memory and learning

Where to find it: Kale and spinach have the highest amounts of lutein. Adding them to your meals can be especially helpful if macular degeneration runs in your family.

Frame Highlight: Vera Bradley Eyewear

What started as a small brand designing feminine, colorful luggage has grown into a global name loved for its vibrant patterns and timeless style. Today, that same signature look shines through in the Vera Bradley Eyewear collection — and we’re proud to carry it here at Driesen Eye Center.

With every Vera Bradley Eyewear purchase, a portion of the proceeds is donated to breast cancer research — making each pair of frames both stylish and meaningful.

Meet Carla Vis

Carla is from Hull, Iowa, where she also owns her own business, The Spotlight Hair Salon. When she stopped by Driesen Eye Center one day to see if they were hiring, she was excited to find a part-time position a couple of days a week—and it’s been such a great fit ever since.

She enjoys meeting patients, helping them pick out frames, and assisting with special testing. Checking in contact lenses and frames is always fun for Carla, since she gets to see so many different styles. What she loves most about her role is the variety of tasks, the teamwork, and the flexibility the staff shares.

Outside of work, Carla loves spending time with her family at the lake. She has three kids—Jamie, Kaleb, and Riley—and two grandkids, Zoe and Parker. In her free time, you’ll often find her biking, walking, or enjoying a bit of gardening.

Fall Sports Are in Full Swing!

Protecting your eyes is just as important as protecting your head.

• Sports are a leading cause of eye injuries in kids and teens
• Regular glasses don’t provide the same protection
• Prescription sports goggles fit under helmets and keep vision sharp while shielding eyes from impact

Stop by Driesen Eye Center to ask about prescription goggles designed for athletes.
