April Fools!
Mood-changing contacts would be pretty cool, right? But we don't fool around when it comes to contact lens safety!
Whether you're wearing contacts for the first time or have been wearing them for years, proper fit and care are essential. Contact lenses are a prescribed medical device, and when worn and cared for properly, they provide safe, effective vision correction for 45 million Americans!
Contact lenses are great for:
• Active lifestyles and sports
• Professional needs
• Any occasion where you want glasses-free vision
But here's the serious part: poorly fitting lenses can scratch your cornea, leading to pain, infection, and even vision loss. Your cornea can also change shape over time, so regular fittings ensure your lenses fit properly and your prescription is up to date.
Having issues with your contacts? It's time for an exam and fitting! Give us a call today. 563-323-2020
No pranks here—just healthy vision!

Women Fighting Hunger: Another Amazing Year!
ESA was proud to sponsor the 6th Annual River Bend Food Bank Women Fighting Hunger event last Thursday—an event we've been honored to support since day one!
What a night! A sold-out crowd came together to hear from Coach Lisa Bluder and support an incredible cause. Here's hoping they reached (and exceeded!) their fundraising goal!
This event does such important work—providing meals to people facing food insecurity right here in our communities. Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, and supports this vital mission. Together, we're making a real difference!

Not happy with your vision in glasses or soft contacts?
Dr. Baldwin talked with Marcia Lense on KWQC- TV6 Midday Medical last week about hard contacts. If you have irregular shaped corneas from conditions like keratoconus or injury, severe astigmatism, dry eye, post-surgical complications or are just not happy with your vision —RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable), scleral, or hybrid lenses may still be an option to support active lifestyles, sports, and professional needs.

Happy Belated Poetry Day!

An Ode to Eyes

Two windows to the world so bright,
They help us see both day and night.
From sunrise gold to starry skies,
We see it all through precious eyes.

They sparkle, shine, and sometimes cry,
They roll, they wink, they catch your eye.
So here's to blues and greens and browns—
They see some of the greatest gifts that can be found!

Take care of yours, both day and night,
And keep your world bright!

The actual day was observed Saturday, but wanted to share the poem AI helped me with. Think it was pretty on target. 😊

If you’ve been told that contact lenses won’t work for you, you should tune in and learn how people who thought they could never wear contacts due to keratoconus, severe astigmatism, dry eye or post-surgical complications—can use RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable), scleral, or hybrid lenses to support their active lifestyles, sports, and professional needs.
