COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Update
Our offices will be closed until May 4th.

Out of an abundance of caution for the health of our patients, staff and community, Eye Care Services the office of Dr. Marc Austhof is following the Guidelines of the American Optometric Association and the CDC. We are postponing all routine eye care and suspending all clinical operations with the exception of urgent or emergencies.

These are not decisions that are made lightly, but are intended to protect the health of the general public. The discontinuation of eye care eliminates potential contact of persons who may transmit the COVID-19 virus and widen the spread of it in the community. It also conserves valuable medical supplies - particularly personal protective equipment like gowns, gloves, and masks - that may be needed in the event of a worsening public health crisis that strains supply chains. These actions also protect and conserve medical personnel who likewise may be called upon for additional duty in a scenario of widening strain on health care system.

We understand that these cancellations cause inconvenience and frustration. We will be checking phone messages daily at 231-421-7068 and can also be reached by email eyecareservicestc@gmail.com

Ostrin recommends limiting screen time, applying screen filters, wearing computer glasses that block blue light, or use anti-reflective lenses to offset the effects of artificial light at nighttime. Some devices even include night mode settings that limit blue light exposure.

There's no doubt we love our digital devices at all hours, including after the sun goes down. Who hasn't snuggled up with a smart phone, tablet or watched their flat screen TV from the comfort of bed? A new study by researchers at the University of Houston College of Optometry, published in Ophthalm...

-Avoid drafts and use a humidifier to put moisture back into dry air.

"When purchased over-the-counter, decorative contact lenses can put people at risk for bacterial infections, allergic reactions, or even significant damage to the eye's ability to function, with the potential for irreversible sight loss. Sadly, numerous cases of this have been documented."

"Extended reading may lead to incomplete blinking, which in turn reduces tear film integrity. “Forceful” blinking enhances lipid layer thickness. This may explain why children who view screens, sometimes for hours, have altered tear films and reduced vision."

Check out this article to learn how protect yourself & your children from dry eye.

William Townsend, OD, notes that the rise in electronic device usage, especially among children and young adults, has had a direct correlation between the rise in dry eye symptoms in those age groups.
