It can start suddenly with flashing lights, zigzag patterns, or a blind spot that slowly moves across your vision.

For many people, it’s a surprising and sometimes unsettling experience. Ocular migraines are visual disturbances that can happen with or without a headache. While they’re often temporary, they can interfere with daily activities like reading, driving, or working on a screen.

At Capitol Eye Care Center, we help patients understand what’s happening and rule out other possible causes. If you’ve experienced changes in your vision call us at 510-791-5272.

Understanding your symptoms is the first step toward managing them.

Living with diabetes means paying attention to many aspects of your health and your eyes are an important part of that.

You may not notice any changes at first, but diabetes can affect the tiny blood vessels in your eyes over time. That’s why regular diabetic eye exams are so important. These exams allow us to check for early signs of changes and address them before they impact your vision.

At Capitol Eye Care Center, we take the time to explain what we see and answer your questions, so you feel informed and confident about your eye health. A simple exam today can help protect your vision for years to come.

If glasses are starting to feel like more of a hassle than a help, you’re not alone. Many people reach a point where they wonder what other options are out there.

From contact lenses to refractive surgery, there are different ways to correct vision depending on your lifestyle, comfort, and eye health.

A conversation with your optometrist at Capitol Eye Care Center can help you understand what might work best for you.

It’s a beautiful California day with clear skies and plenty of sunshine.
While enjoying the outdoors, it’s important to remember that prolonged sun exposure can affect your eyes just as it does your skin. Wearing quality sunglasses with UV protection helps reduce glare and supports long-term eye health.

Will he SEE his shadow?

Groundhog Day happens every year on February 2.
The tradition dates back to European folklore, where people believed the weather on this day could predict how long winter would last. When German settlers brought it to Pennsylvania, the groundhog became the star predictor.

If he sees his shadow → 6 more weeks of winter
No shadow → early spring.

Just like the groundhog checking for his shadow, good vision helps you notice the little things.
