After over 30 years of dedicated service, our Practice Manager, Avril Whyte, is retiring. To mark this milestone, the team was treated to a special five-course meal aboard the RRS Discovery — the last surviving wooden-hulled research vessel that explored Antarctica over a century ago.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Avril for her unwavering commitment and wish her all the best in her retirement.

Maintaining clear vision throughout your life takes proactive care, particularly as you age. One condition affecting millions of people worldwide is macular degeneration, which gradually impacts central vision when left undetected.

Regular eye examinations are key for detecting the condition, and here's how.

Many people get no obvious symptoms of macular degeneration at first, but regular eye tests ensure signs are spotted and treatment can begin early.

Macular degeneration is a condition that affects the part of your eye called the macula, responsible for central vision. When the cells in the macula begin to break down, it can cause blurred or lost central vision, making everyday tasks like reading, driving, or recognising faces much harder.

The risk of developing macular degeneration can increase due to factors such as:

• Family history can make you more likely to develop the condition.
• Smoking significantly raises your risk.
• A diet lacking in nutrients, especially those good for eye health, can contribute.

Looking after your eye health and making lifestyle changes can help reduce the risk of macular degeneration.

Optometrists Ian & John Jarvis are honoured to have been invited to present at the Optometry Tomorrow conference this June, hosted by the College of Optometrists. They will be sharing their published research on the management of meibomian gland dysfunction, a common cause of dry eyes.

The Programme Advisory Panel noted, 'We were impressed by the quality and relevance of your contribution, and we’re excited to feature your work as part of a diverse and forward-looking programme.'

A great opportunity to highlight their expertise and further the conversation around dry eye management!

At Jarvis Eyecare, we understand the importance of managing myopia (also known as short-sightedness) in children to help protect their vision as they grow. We offer two advanced methods that can effectively slow the progression of short-sightedness and reduce the risk of future complications:

• MiYOSMART spectacle lenses: These lenses feature a unique design that helps the eyes focus light in a way that reduces strain, slowing the worsening of short-sightedness.

• Nocturnal Ortho-K contact lenses: Worn overnight, these rigid contact lenses gently reshape the cornea, providing clear vision throughout the day without the need for glasses or contacts, while also helping to slow the growth of the eye.

Both options are designed to support your child’s eye health and vision for the future, giving you peace of mind as they continue to grow.

Principal Optometrist Ian Jarvis was invited to an inter-professional meeting with neurology, ophthalmology, and other professions run by Edinburgh University.

They discussed preliminary research looking at markers in the retina at the back of your eye for Alzheimer’s. Ian said, 'As 45% of your risk is due to modifiable risk factors, this could be an important role for Optometry in the future.'
