Q1, you set the tone 😉
This quarter has been all about growth and connection—starting the year with an advisory board collaboration with Sun Pharma, catching up with Dr. Po***ck during his visit, and we’re excited to have introduced TriLift to further expand our treatment offerings.

We also spent a great few days at the OAO Symposium and InfoMart in Ottawa, celebrated Dr. Tenn’s birthday with the team, and closed out the quarter with a medallion recognition for our contribution to Optometry Giving Sight—a moment we’re especially proud of.

Grateful for the momentum and looking forward to what the rest of 2026 brings.

Struggling with rosacea?

IPL (OptiLight) is commonly used to manage rosacea by reducing redness, minimizing flushing, and improving overall skin tone.

Working below the surface helps address one of the root causes, not just the visible symptoms.

Watery eyes but still feel dry? 💧👀 Here’s why…

It might sound confusing, but watery eyes are actually a common sign of Dry Eye Disease.
👉 When your eyes feel dry or irritated, it’s often because your tears aren’t doing their job properly.

What’s really going on:
Your tear film is made of oil, water, and mucus layers that work together to keep your eyes smooth and protected.
In dry eye, you either don’t make enough tears or the quality is poor—so the surface of your eye stays irritated.
In response, your eyes go into overdrive and produce reflex tears 💧
But these are mostly watery and lack the oils needed to stay on the eye.

➡️ So instead of coating and soothing your eyes, they spill over… leaving you with eyes that are watery, yet still dry, gritty, or burning.

What can make it worse:
Long screen time 💻Dry indoor air or wind 🌬️Smoke or environmental irritantsContact lensesAgingCertain medicationsEyelid or oil gland issues

Sometimes, watery eyes can also overlap with allergies or tear drainage issues—so it’s not always straightforward.

💡 If your eyes constantly water but still feel irritated, don’t ignore it.

A proper consult can confirm what’s going on and help guide treatment—whether that’s artificial tears, warm compresses, lid care, or in-office dry eye therapies.

The three most common signs of dry eye disease are 👇
👁️ Stinging, burning, or gritty sensation

That uncomfortable feeling like there’s sand, dust, or something stuck in your eye… even when nothing is actually there.

🔴 Redness and irritation
Eyes that look bloodshot or feel constantly irritated, tired, or scratchy—especially after screen time or at the end of the day.

🌫️ Blurry or fluctuating vision
Vision that goes in and out of focus but clears when you blink? This can be a key sign your tear film isn’t stable.

💡 Here’s the thing: dry eye doesn’t always mean your eyes feel “dry.”

You might even experience watery eyes—your body’s way of trying to compensate.
If you notice these symptoms regularly (especially in both eyes), don’t ignore them. Dry eye disease is very common—but it’s also very manageable with the right care.

📅 Book your Dry Eye Consult to get a proper diagnosis and personalized treatment plan.
