World Kindness Day 💙

Kindness is the small habit that changes everything—the hand on a door, the name remembered at check-in, the “how are your eyes feeling today?” before we talk prescriptions. It softens hard days and brightens ordinary ones.🫶

Today we’re inviting you to practice practical kindness—the kind you can do between meetings and carpool runs:Offer one genuine compliment (be specific).

🌟Let someone go first—on the road, in line, in conversation.
🌟Send a quick “thinking of you” text to a person who’s been on your mind.
🌟Notice your body language: a smile and eye contact go a long way.
🌟Say thank you—out loud—to the people who quietly keep things moving.

From all of us at Eastern Virginia Eye Associates, thank you for the everyday kindness you show our team and each other, not just today—but all year long. 💙

Myth vs Fact: Diabetic Eye Disease

Early changes are often silent—tiny vessel leaks and macular swelling can appear before symptoms. That’s why we use dilated exams, retinal imaging, and OCT scans to measure what you can’t feel.

Small, steady habits (A1c/BP/lipids on target) + regular dilated exams + imaging protect your sharp vision center (the macula) over time.

We are here for you. Schedule an appointment to help ensure you have a lifetime of healthy vision.🫶

Here's your Tuesday Tip: 💡
Although this is a general rule throughout the year, as the weather gets cooler, air from heaters and vents can aggravate your eyes!🔥

Why it helps:
Air moving across the eye evaporates the tear film faster, especially the oily layer from meibomian glands. Less oil = quicker drying = burning and blur. Reducing direct airflow keeps that layer stable longer.👍🏼

Still inflamed and irritated? Give us a call and schedule and appointment. Our doctors are ready to get you through this season! 🙌

Don’t risk your vision for the vibe. 👀

Your eyes aren’t costumes—skip sketchy lenses, keep props blunt, and keep drops handy. 🎃
