You probably wear eye protection and sunscreen in the summer. Do you think about it during the winter months as well? In any season, sun exposure may increase your risk for conditions like: cataracts, growths on the eye, including cancer, and photokeratitis (including snow blindness).

Getting too much sun can increase your risk for these conditions. But the damage to the front surface of the eye that causes snow blindness is unique because it can happen quickly. You can prevent all these conditions simply by wearing sunglasses and goggles.

Why Glaucoma is Called the "Silent Thief of Sight"

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness for people over 60 years old. For this reason, early detection and treatment are extremely important. Yet, glaucoma has no symptoms in its early stages. In fact, half the people with glaucoma do not know they have it! Having regular eye exams can help your eye doctor find this disease before you lose vision.

Scheduling both consults and follow-ups are equally important and managing your eye care needs.

It’s that time of year! Please ensure you come to your appointment with both your medical and vision insurance cards/information to provide to the front desk and ensure we have the most updated information in your charts.

As Winter weather pushes through, it’s important to know what to do if you're poked in the eye with a tree branch or pine needle:

If your eye has been cut or punctured, seek emergency care right away. A blow to the eye from a tree branch, for example, could damage the eye's internal structure and cause conditions as serious as glaucoma or retinal detachment. While you're waiting for help, DO NOT rinse the eye or try to remove an embedded object.

Don’t forget dilation takes about 20 minutes to properly dilate the eye. You can experience blurry vision up close for around for the next few hours after your appointment. Your distance vision will be okay. You will need dark sunglasses when you leave. If you do not have them we have them at the front desk. You can put them over or under your glasses.

We ask that patients take this into consideration when scheduling your appointments and calculating how long you will be in the office for.
