Your heart and your eyes are more connected than you might think. Healthy circulation helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the eyes, while poor cardiovascular health can increase the risk of vision problems like diabetic eye disease, retinal vein occlusions, and even vision loss.

Taking care of your heart through regular exercise, balanced nutrition, managing blood pressure, and not smoking can also help protect your eyesight. Routine eye exams play an important role too. Changes in the blood vessels of the eyes can sometimes be early signs of heart or vascular issues.

Schedule a comprehensive eye exam so we can keep your heart pumping and your eyes seeing. Conveniently book an appointment online: https://bit.ly/BookEyeAppointments or call 417-470-3937

Thatโ€™s why eye exams can sometimes detect conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure early.

Your eyes are the only place in the body where doctors can directly see blood vessels without surgery. During a comprehensive eye exam, we can view the tiny blood vessels in the back of your eye and sometimes spot changes that may point to larger health concerns.

Because of this, eye exams can occasionally detect early signs of conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and other vascular issues, even before noticeable symptoms appear. Many patients are surprised to learn that an eye exam is not just about how clearly you see. It is also an important part of monitoring your overall health.

Another great reminder that routine eye exams do more than protect your vision. They help protect you.

When people think about UV protection, they often think of summer, but your eyes need protection all year long. Even in winter, UV rays can damage your eyes, especially when sunlight reflects off snow and ice.

Wearing sunglasses with 100% UV protection every time you head outside is one of the simplest changes you can make for long-term eye health. It is an easy habit that helps protect against cataracts, macular degeneration, and other vision problems down the road. Your eyes deserve year-round care.

Many eye conditions develop without obvious symptoms, which means you can have โ€œperfectโ€ vision and still have underlying eye health issues. Regular comprehensive eye exams allow us to look beyond how well you see and check the overall health of your eyes. Conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease are often caught during routine exams before vision changes are noticed. Clear vision is important, but healthy eyes are essential.

It's a brand new year. Let's go ahead and schedule your appointment and mark that to-do off your list. Conveniently book an appointment online: https://bit.ly/BookEyeAppointments or call 417-470-3937

Have your resolutions to work out started to fade? Hereโ€™s another great reason to keep moving.

Regular exercise does more than support your heart and waistline. It can also benefit your eye health. Staying active helps improve circulation, manage blood sugar, and control blood pressure, all of which play an important role in protecting your vision. These healthy habits can lower the risk of eye conditions like diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration.

If your motivation is starting to fade as January pushes forward, remember that every walk, workout, or stretch is not just an investment in your body. It is an investment in your eyesight, too. Keep those resolutions going. Your eyes are cheering you on.
