Dry eyes can cause uncomfortable symptoms, like burning, itching, watering or blurred vision. Here are some tips to reduce the uncomfortable symptoms associated with dry eye disease.

1. Avoid environmental triggers like cigarette smoke, powerful air vents, wind, and known allergens. Wearing protective wraparound glasses may help further protect your eyes when triggers are unavoidable.
2. Use a humidifier regularly, as Vancouver has very low humidity levels, which can take a toll on your eyes.
3. Placing a warm mask can help melt thickened oils in the meibomian glands, improving oil flow and stabilizing tear film. We provide 2 different eye mask models to suit your specific needs.
4. Taking frequent breaks when you’re reading or using a computer, and remembering to blink often will also help your tear production.
5. Omega-3 fatty acid supplements also help by reducing inflammation and enhancing tear production.

Call us at 604-770-2095 to schedule an appointment to see one of our expert optometrists and begin a health care plan to remedy your dry eye symptoms.

Eyelash extensions have become increasingly popular since the early 2000s, after Japanese and Korean beauty innovators developed the lash-by-lash technique, which involved the attachment of synthetic lashes to each individual natural lash. This technique offered longer retention times and a more customizable look compared to traditional strip lashes. The Canadian market for eyelash extensions is also significantly influenced by social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok, where beauty influencers and enthusiasts alike promote various eyelash styles and makeup tutorials. What is rarely included in these promotions, however, is the increased risk of ocular discomfort, including itching, eye pain, styes, and even loss of natural lashes.

Consult with one of our expert optometrists today before you decide on eyelash extensions. Call us now at 604-770-2095 or click on our link in bio to book online.

Have you ever wondered what that tiny bright dot or thread in your vision is?

Flashes are sensations of seeing a light when there is no light present. Some flashes look like many tiny bright dots of light, while others can look like lightening. Flashes generally only last for a brief second but they are recurrent.

As you age, the fluid in the eye undergoes chemical changes that cause protein deposits that form clumps and strings in the fluid. When light passes through the eye, the protein clumps throw a shadow on to the retina producing the floaters.

When are flashes and floaters serious?
Floaters are very common. Floaters that have been present for years and are
unchanged in size or number are usually not serious. However, if you notice new floaters, or new flashes, book an eye exam immediately. This could be a symptom of a retinal tear, which can be a precursor to the retina separating from the back of the eye entirely.

If you have any questions about your flashers or floaters, please feel free to dm us, call us at 604-770-2095, or email us at info@viewoptometry.ca.
