Dry eye treatment isn’t just eye drops anymore... 👁️

If you’ve heard about IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) for dry eye, here’s the most important thing to know: it can be an excellent option for the right patient, especially when dry eye is related to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)/evaporative dry eye and inflammation.

At our office, we don’t guess. We evaluate the cause of your symptoms first, then build a treatment plan based on your findings.

✨ IPL is often used as part of a series and may be combined with other therapies depending on your diagnosis.
✨ Dry eye is typically chronic, so the goal is long-term improvement and a maintenance plan—not just a quick fix.

If your eyes burn, sting, feel gritty, or your vision fluctuates (especially on screens), it may be time for a dry eye evaluation.

AMD Prevention = small habits, big payoff. 👁️

Macular degeneration (AMD) affects the macula—the part of your retina responsible for sharp, detailed central vision. You can’t always prevent AMD, but you can lower your risk and catch changes early.

Fun Friday: Weekend Vision Checklist ✅😎

Before you head into the weekend, here's a quick check!

Which one are you crushing… and which one are you skipping? 😅

We’re investing in your experience.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

On Tuesday morning, 2/24, our office will be closed until 12:30 PM so our entire team can participate in a training and education session—focused on improving how we care for you and keeping our standards sharp.

We’ll reopen at 12:30 PM and look forward to seeing you that afternoon. Thank you for understanding!🫶

It's AMD awareness month. Here's what you need to know!🧐

Dry and Wet AMD both affect the macula (your sharp central vision), but they behave very differently. Dry AMD is usually gradual, while Wet AMD can change vision quickly and needs urgent attention. If straight lines suddenly look wavy, or you notice a dark spot in your central vision, call right away—early treatment can make a big difference.

Education and prevention is key. Book an appointment online at evea2020.com or call us at (757)436-3937. Your eyes will thank you 🙏

If it’s bright enough to squint, it’s bright enough for sunglasses. 😎

Clouds don’t block UV the way people think they do—and glare is often worse on hazy days.

Quick checklist for real protection:
🕶️ 100% UVA/UVB
🚗 Polarized for driving and water
🧢 Bigger coverage (your eyelids need protection too)

Pro tip: If you’re squinting while driving or leaving outdoor sports practice with a headache, glare may be the real culprit—polarized sunglasses are for you!

Beat the Spring Break rush and stop by our optical to chat with our expert opticians. They can give you some personalized recommendations tailored to your prescription and lifestyle. 👏

Have you ever had a stye? Not fun!👎

Styes are common—and usually very treatable. A stye is a tender bump along the eyelid that happens when an oil gland gets blocked and inflamed.

Start with warm compresses (10 minutes, 2–4x/day) and avoid squeezing it. If you’re getting styes repeatedly, it’s often a sign of underlying lid inflammation / oil gland dysfunction, and we can help. We treat the root cause of MGD and can help prevent further gland damage which can affect the future health of your eyes.

If it’s worsening, affecting vision, not improving within about a week, or you are just concerned, please call us. We are standing by to help you!

Macular Degeneration (AMD) affects the macula—the part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision (reading, driving, recognizing faces). 👁

AMD typically doesn’t affect side vision early, which is why many people don’t notice changes at first. The best protection is early detection + consistent monitoring.

If you’re 50+, have a family history, or smoke/used to smoke, make sure you’re getting routine dilated retinal exams. Stay tuned throughout the month for more informative posts about how you can preserve your vision so you can enjoy life to the fullest. Questions? We are here for you.

✅Tuesday Tip: Backup glasses = non-negotiable 👓

If you wear contact lenses, you should always have a current pair of glasses on hand.

Think of them as your Plan B for real life:
• dry, irritated eyes
• allergy flare-ups
• a scratched/dirty lens day
• travel mishaps
• getting sick (yes—pink eye, a cold, even the flu)

The biggest mistake we see? People push through discomfort because they don’t have another option—and that’s when small irritation can turn into a bigger problem.

If your glasses prescription is outdated, or you don’t have a reliable pair, let’s fix that. Come visit our optical to check out the latest styles and technology. Your eyes will thank you.
