Winter can be tough on your eyes. Cold air, wind, and indoor heating can all contribute to dryness and irritation. A few small changes can make a big difference in keeping your eyes comfortable all season long. If dryness or irritation is sticking around, an eye exam can help identify the cause and the right solution.

Eye exams are about so much more than how clearly you can see. While checking your vision is important, a comprehensive eye exam also looks at the overall health of your eyes and can reveal issues you may not notice on your own.

During an exam, your optometrist checks for early signs of eye diseases, monitors changes in eye pressure, assesses how your eyes work together, and looks for indicators of health conditions that can show up in the eyes before symptoms appear elsewhere.

At Ambleside Family Optometry, eye exams are about prevention, early detection, and long-term eye health, not just updating your prescription. Taking care of your eyes now helps protect your vision for years to come

Seeing clearly doesn’t always mean your eyes are healthy. Headaches, eye strain, redness, and difficulty focusing can all be signs that your eyes are working harder than they should, even if your vision feels “fine.”

Regular eye exams help catch changes early, assess eye health, and prevent small issues from turning into bigger ones. If any of these signs feel familiar, it may be time to check in with your eye care team.

Sunglasses aren’t just a summer thing. Winter sun, snow glare, and UV exposure can be just as hard on your eyes, especially in January. When sunlight reflects off snow and ice, it increases brightness and strain, which can lead to squinting, headaches, dryness, and long-term eye damage.
Our latest blog explains why protecting your eyes in winter matters, how UV rays still affect your vision even on cloudy days.

Head to our latest blog at the link below to learn why sunglasses are a year-round essential and how to protect your eyes this winter with help from Ambleside Family Optometry.

Winter can be especially tough on your eyes. Cold outdoor air, dry indoor heating, and more screen time all work together to strip moisture from the tear film, leading to dryness, irritation, redness, and that gritty feeling.

A few simple habits can help reduce winter dry eye symptoms. If dryness, burning, or irritation keeps coming back, a professional dry eye assessment can help identify the cause and guide you toward lasting relief. Winter eye discomfort isn’t something you have to push through.

If your eyes start feeling heavy, dry, or strained by midday, you’re not imagining it. Long hours on screens, reduced blinking, dry indoor air, and poor lighting all force your eyes to work harder than they should. Over time, this can lead to fatigue, redness, and headaches.

Simple changes like taking regular breaks, improving lighting, staying hydrated, and wearing the right lenses can make a noticeable difference.
