It’s Talk About Prescriptions Month! Did you know the medications you take for conditions like blood pressure, diabetes, allergies, or even mood can affect your eyes and vision? 👁️
Some medications may cause:
✔️ Dry eyes
✔️ Blurry or double vision
✔️ Light sensitivity
✔️ Changes in eye pressure

That’s why it’s so important to share your full medication list with your eye doctor. Even prescriptions that aren’t “for your eyes” can impact your vision and overall eye health.

Bring your medication list to your next appointment, and let’s make sure your eyes are protected. Your vision deserves it!

October is World Blindness Awareness Month — a reminder that protecting your vision starts with awareness and regular eye care. Did you know:
🔹 Over 80% of vision loss worldwide is preventable or treatable with early detection.
🔹 Common causes include cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease.
🔹 Routine eye exams can catch issues before they lead to permanent vision loss.

This month, we stand with the global effort to fight avoidable blindness. 💙 Take charge of your eye health by scheduling a comprehensive eye exam — and encouraging loved ones to do the same.
