According to the National Eye Institute, sleep apnea could raise your risk of eye disease.

A new study looked at people with obstructive sleep apnea and found it might be linked to retinal vein occlusion—a condition that can cause sudden vision loss. The connection seems to vary by population, but it’s a good reminder that what affects your body can also affect your eyes.

Talk to your doctor of optometry if you have concerns about your sleep or your sight.

Staying safe this Halloween includes protecting your eyes:

• Ensure that masks or hoods do not block your vision or restrict your peripheral field, which can increase the risk of trips and falls.
• Avoid sharp props. Choose accessories made from soft, flexible materials and avoid sharp-edged items like swords or wands that could cause eye injuries.
• Use for high-quality, FDA-approved makeup and face paint, and test it on a small skin patch first.
• Use costume eyepatches only when standing still for photos. They can affect depth perception.
• Don’t wear decorative contact lenses without a prescription. Even if they don't change your vision, contact lenses are medical devices and require a prescription and fitting by an eye doctor so you don’t have serious complications such as corneal abrasions, infections and blindness.
