Are your eyes watering even though it's a hot summer day? Believe it or not, this can be a sign of dry eye syndrome. When your eyes are dry, they may try to overcompensate by producing excess tears. Hot, dry air and summer activities can worsen this imbalance. Schedule an appointment with us and enjoy a tear-free summer!

This UV Safety Month, let's focus on our little ones! Children are actually more susceptible to the harmful effects of UV rays than adults because they typically spend more time outdoors, and their ocular lenses are more transparent, allowing more UV light to reach the retina.
Equip your children with UV-protective eyewear whenever they're outdoors. Hats and caps are also great additions to shield their eyes from direct sunlight.
Schedule an appointment with us for more tips on making UV protection a fun part of your child’s routine.

Love these Tom Ford glasses with Crizal antiglare lenses.

One lesser-known benefit of scleral lenses is their ability to protect the cornea from external environments and debris. This makes them an excellent choice for individuals with sensitive eyes or those who work in environments where dust and particles are a concern. Their unique design creates a protective barrier, reducing the risk of irritation and enhancing overall eye health. Want to learn more about scleral contact lenses? Schedule an appointment with us.

It's the perfect time to discuss why protecting your eyes from the sun is just as important as protecting your skin. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can lead to severe eye conditions over time. That's why choosing the right sunglasses is more than a fashion choice—it's a health priority!
When choosing sunglasses, it's essential to prioritize those that block UVA and UVB rays. Look for a label that certifies their UV protection levels.

Sparklers can be especially dangerous, as they burn at more than 2,000 degrees Farenheit. Sparklers were responsible for 600 fireworks injuries in the latest report, and a sparkler mishap caused one of the fireworks deaths reported in 2017. Children are often allowed to play with sparklers because these fireworks are considered relatively harmless. But that couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Children and young adults are frequent victims of serious fireworks injuries. Children age 15 and under accounted for about one-third of the total injuries, according to the commission’s report. Teenagers 15 to 19 years old were most likely to require emergency treatment for fireworks injuries. Firecrackers were the top cause of injury, sending more than 1,300 people to the emergency room.

How to Treat a Fireworks Eye Injury
The most recent Consumer Product Safety Commission report found that 16% of fireworks injuries were eye injuries. In the most severe cases, fireworks can rupture the globe of the eye, cause chemical and thermal burns, corneal abrasions and retinal detachment — all of which can cause permanent eye damage and vision loss.

Fireworks-related eye injuries can combine blunt force trauma, heat burns and chemical exposure. An eye injury from fireworks is a medical emergency. Call 911 or seek immediate medical care. In the meantime, follow these guidelines:

Do not rub your eyes.
Do not rinse your eyes.
Do not apply pressure.
Do not remove any objects that are stuck in the eye.
Do not apply ointments or take any blood-thinning pain medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen unless directed by a doctor.
Fireworks Safety Rules
The best way to avoid a potentially blinding fireworks injury is by attending a professional fireworks show rather than purchasing fireworks for home use.

If you attend a fireworks show
Respect safety barriers, follow all safety instructions and view fireworks from at least 500 feet away.
All users and bystanders should wear eye protection that meets the criteria set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Do not touch unexploded fireworks; instead, immediately contact local fire or police departments to help.
