📢 FEATURED FRIDAY

This months Featured Employee is Skyler!

Howdy! My name is Skyler and I have been a medical receptionist at K.O. since April of this year! I’m going on 2 years in the medical field and previously worked in fine dining in the Detroit area. My favorite part of this job is all the wonderful patients and coworkers. There is never a day without laughter here!

Throughout my life, I’ve lived in Michigan, Washington, and Tennessee. Outside of work, I love to dance. I started with swing dancing in college and have since learned fusion, bachata, zouk, and many more! Dancing has given me the chance to travel to Austin, TX; the Redwoods in CA; and my now favorite city Denver, CO! I currently live at home with my fiance, our dog, and three cats! In our free time we are venturing to used bookstores and trying new food throughout southeast Michigan!

Ever wonder why pirates are often shown wearing eyepatches? It wasn’t just for style. Many believe they kept one eye covered so it would always be adjusted to the dark.

Here’s how that works: when you’re out in bright sunlight, your pupils shrink, which makes it difficult to see right away in dim light. By keeping one eye covered, pirates could lift the patch when going below deck—or heading into a night raid—and instantly see in the dark with their “night vision” eye.

This clever trick uses something called dark adaptation—the process your eyes go through to adjust from bright to dark settings. Without it, moving quickly from sunlight into darkness would leave them practically blind for several minutes.

While most of us won’t be wearing eyepatches today, it’s a great reminder of just how amazing and adaptable our eyes truly are.

This months Featured Employee is Lori!

My name is Lori and I have worked at Kensington Ophthalmology just under 2 years. When I started in October 2023, I worked in the optical department. Currently I work the front desk as a medical receptionist.

I grew up in Detroit, MI and graduated from Bishop Borgess High School. I played basketball, and was selected as first team All Catholic in softball.

I graduated from Central Michigan University in May 1984 where I received my BSBA. I started work at SVS Vision 2 days after graduation and then got married in October 1984. I have a son Jeffrey, 39 years old and my daughter Kristin is 37 years old. I am also an ABO Certified licensed Optician since 2001.

I enjoy hanging out with my family and friends. I love to work in my yard and remodel my house.

I have 2 pugs named Molly and Maggie who make me laugh and smile everyday!

Did you know staring at digital screens for long periods can contribute to dry eye syndrome?

When we focus on phones, computers, or tablets, we blink less often. That means fewer tears are spread across the surface of the eye — leaving them dry, irritated, and uncomfortable. Other common symptoms can be burning or stinging, redness or intermittent blurred vision.

With screen time being a big part of daily life, dry eye symptoms are becoming more common. Using artificial tears regularly can help with these symptoms. We recommend using tears 2-4 times a day.

If you are using tears at least 2-4 times a day and still feeling uncomfortable, schedule an appointment and we can discuss other treatment options with you.

Recognizing the Symptoms of Cataracts

Is your vision starting to feel cloudy? Cataracts occur when the clear lens inside your eye becomes cloudy, causing blurred or hazy vision that can get worse over time.

Common symptoms include:
Blurred or cloudy vision
Colors that look faded
Glare and halos, especially with night driving
Needing brighter light to read
Frequent changes in your glasses prescription

As cataracts get worse, vision becomes more blurry and dim. Night driving can feel unsafe, reading may require stronger light, and daily activities can become more difficult without treatment.

The good news? Cataracts are very fixable and can be detected during a dilated eye exam.

Don't let Cataracts cloud your life! Schedule your dilated eye exam today.

Itchy, watery eyes? It just might be allergies.

Allergic conjunctivitis—often called “eye allergies”—is a common condition that happens when your eyes react to allergens like pollen, dust, or pet dander. Seasonal allergy changes are most common in spring and fall.

Common symptoms include:

Redness in the whites of the eyes

Itching or burning sensation

Watery or teary eyes

Swelling of the eyelids

Sensitivity to light

Unlike infections, allergic conjunctivitis is not contagious—but it can still be uncomfortable and affect your daily life.

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, our team can help you find relief and rule out other eye conditions. Don’t wait—your eyes deserve comfort and clarity!

Happy World Photography Day!

Did you know your eyes work a lot like a camera?

The cornea and lens act like a camera lens, the cornea providing the initial focusing power and the lens fine-tuning the focus.

The pupil works like a camera’s aperture, adjusting how much light enters.

And the retina functions like the film (or digital sensor!), capturing the image so your brain can process it.

Our eyes are the ultimate “built-in cameras”—constantly recording the world around us in stunning detail.

So today, as we celebrate the art of photography, let’s also appreciate the amazing cameras we carry with us every single day—our eyes.

Take care of your vision… it’s the lens through which you see life’s most beautiful moments.
