If you’ve taken a lot of pictures, you might have noticed that the photos don’t always turn out the same as what we see.

DECEMBER IS HERE, and that means so is the holiday season! We’re looking forward to it just as much as you, which is why we got our team together to share some of our favorite holiday traditions!
 

As winter arrives, many of us take precautions to protect ourselves from the cold and boost up our immune system to fight against another flu season. However, winter weather can also pose great risks to your eyes and vision. Vision health does not take a holiday break, so we are here to offer you a few simple but effective tips on how to take care of your eyes this winter.

June is Cataract Awareness Month, and we want to take time to educate the public about cataracts and ways to reduce your risk. Cataracts are the leading cause of vision loss within the United States and are the leading cause of blindness worldwide.

It’s no secret that a well-balanced, nutrient-rich diet can significantly improve your life by boosting energy levels, maintaining a healthy weight, and lowering the risk of developing a variety of health conditions including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and high blood pressure. The foods you eat and the supplements you take do affect your overall health and this includes the health of your eyes!

Our eyes are such a critical part of our everyday lives that we often take for granted. Sure, touch, smell, taste, and hearing are great, but where would we be without our ability to see?

Fall is here! Though eye safety is important all year, around the fall holidays parties and traditions can pose some special ocular hazards for you and your loved ones. Many eye injuries or ailments occur every year during October, and unfortunately, most are preventable. To help keep your vision sharp and safe this month, we want to share our spooktacular eye care tips!

The spookiest night of the year is almost here! Halloween is a festive night where people can dress up for laughs, scares, or even candy. Depending on the costume, it may even take some crazy eyewear to achieve your desired look. With all the excitement surrounding the big night, it can be easy to forget about safety and the potential risk your costume may pose, especially when it comes to your eyes.

As people have their eye examinations and find their prescription has changed, their next step is to purchase eye glasses to help them see their best. How do they know they are getting the best quality lenses available? What lens treatments are needed to help provide the clearest vision? How long will their lenses last before they scratch? What about getting rid of that annoying glare? Are all anti-glare coatings the same? What lenses will protect their eyes from sun damage the best? Does the type of lens material affect how light-weight the glasses feel? When you sit down to purchase glasses, understanding all your options may feel daunting and overwhelming. I hope to give you some added understanding about what goes into producing a high quality, visually clear lens that will meet your needs.
