👁️ Busting 3 Common Cataract Myths!

Cataracts are more common than you think, and so is the misinformation. Let's debunk some myths:

🔍 Myth 1: Cataracts grow back.
✅ Fact: Once removed, they're gone for good. If vision becomes cloudy again, it’s likely due to PCO, which is easily fixable with a laser treatment.

🔍 Myth 2: Only old people get cataracts.
✅ Fact: While more common with age, cataracts can affect anyone, including younger adults and even babies.

🔍 Myth 3: Eye drops can cure cataracts.
✅ Fact: No magic drops here. Surgery is the only effective treatment.

Eye Fact Friday! 👁️✨

Ever wondered why we cry when we're upset, even though tears are meant to clean and protect our eyes? 🤔 Let's break it down:

1. Basal Tears: Keep our eyes moisturised and infection-free. 🦠

2. Reflex Tears: Clear out irritants like smoke or onions. 🌬️

3. Emotional Tears: Shed when we're feeling intense emotions. They help release stress and signal to others that we need support. 🤗

👁️ A Visionary Breakthrough!
Scientists have 3D-printed the first human corneas using a special bio-ink made from stem cells—and it only takes 10 minutes to print one!

🔬 Developed by researchers at Newcastle University, this groundbreaking technique uses a low-cost 3D printer and a gel made from alginate and collagen to create a cornea that matches the patient's unique eye shape. That means custom-made corneas for each person!

🌍 With over 10 million people at risk of blindness due to diseases like trachoma, and 5 million already blind from corneal scarring, this innovation could be life-changing—offering a future solution to the global shortage of donor corneas.

🧪 The research, published in Experimental Eye Research, is still in early stages and will take time before it's ready for transplants—but scientists are hopeful.
Professor Che Connon, who led the study, says this technique holds enormous potential to restore sight for millions.

💡 Until then, eye donation remains vital for those living with corneal blindness today.

💧 Wearing contact lenses? Let’s keep it safe and crystal clear.

Contact lenses help you see the world beautifully, but if not used properly, they can introduce harmful bacteria into your eyes. 😷

✅ Follow these 4 golden rules for healthy, safe lens wear:

1️⃣ Wash & dry your hands thoroughly before handling your lenses.
2️⃣ Always use fresh solution — never top up old solution in your case.
3️⃣ Don’t sleep in your contacts (unless specifically prescribed).
4️⃣ Stick to your replacement schedule — don’t stretch lens wear longer than advised.

👁️ Feeling discomfort, redness, or irritation? Remove your lenses immediately and get your eyes checked.

📞 For advice or a quick check-up, call Jaques van Niekerk, optometrist — we’re here to help you protect your vision.
