Bernie's Tip to the Rescue!
​Before you give up and throw your glasses (please don't!), here is a quick tip to achieve streak-free clarity:

​Don't Wipe Dry: Dry wiping, even with a cloth, just moves dust and oils around.

​WASH First: Rinse your glasses under cool, running water to remove dust particles (which can scratch the lens!).

​Use Mild Soap: Apply a tiny drop of mild dish soap to the lenses, gently rub with your fingers, and rinse again.

​DRY with Microfiber: Only then use your clean microfiber cloth (or a spectacle cloth from us!) to gently dry the lenses.

​Give it a try—it makes a world of difference!

I often get asked if those expensive lens coatings are absolutely necessary. Here’s my straight answer!

Think of your standard lenses like a reliable car, and the coatings (anti-glare, blue light, etc.) like air conditioning.

You can definitely get by without A/C, but it makes the journey much more comfortable! Standard lenses give you perfect, functional vision. The extras? They are nice-to-haves that boost comfort and protection.

My goal is for you to be informed. If you just need functionality, we can keep it simple. If you want the premium comfort, let’s upgrade!

As we pause today, let's take a moment to truly appreciate what a privilege and a blessing healthy vision is.

It’s easy to take sight for granted—the vibrant colours of nature, the detail in a loved one's face, the ability to navigate the world safely. These moments are only possible because of the intricate, tireless work of your eyes.

Vision is not a given; it's a gift that requires mindful maintenance and care.

This week, commit to protecting that blessing. Prioritize your eye health so you can continue to experience the world in all its beautiful clarity for years to come.

It's a universal kitchen problem! But why exactly do your eyes water when you chop an onion?

Here's the science: When you cut an onion, you release a chemical compound called syn-propanethial S-oxide. This gas floats up to your eyes and irritates the corneal nerves. Your eyes' natural defense mechanism kicks in, sending a flood of tears to wash the irritant away!

It's your eyes doing their job—protecting themselves from external invaders!

Getting your first pair of glasses is a significant step! But with all the options out there—coatings, tints, special features—it can feel a little overwhelming.

In today's video, Bernie shares some invaluable advice, especially for first-time glasses wearers. He walks us through:

👓 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 '𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱' 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲𝘀? The reliable foundation for clear vision. ✨

💡 𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗲'𝘀 𝗣𝗿𝗼 𝗧𝗶𝗽: For newcomers, sometimes starting with a standard, more affordable pair is the smartest move.
Why? It gives you a chance to comfortably adjust to wearing and caring for glasses daily, minimizing the worry if they get misplaced or damaged while you're getting used to them. Once you're comfortable, then you can explore those fantastic extra features!

We believe in making your transition to glasses as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Viral Trend Alert: Permanent Eye Color Change? We Need to Talk! 🤯
​You’ve probably seen the viral videos: surgeons offering a new procedure to permanently tattoo color over your eye's natural pigment to change your eye color. It's certainly polarizing!

​As eye care professionals, we have to approach this with extreme caution. The eyes are incredibly complex and sensitive organs.

Introducing any foreign material or pigment via surgery into a structure that is perfectly healthy—especially one with potential side effects as severe as complete blindness—raises serious ethical and safety concerns for us.

​We want to hear from you! What do you think about this viral trend?

​Is the desire for a permanent color change worth the risk?
​Would you ever consider trying a procedure like this?

​Share your thoughts and keep the conversation professional! 👇

​📞 For professional advice on safe, reliable ways to enhance your vision or style, call or WhatsApp us on +27 74 582 0431.
