Myth: Eye exams aren’t necessary if you’re not having symptoms.
Truth: Actually, many eye diseases develop silently, without any noticeable symptoms at first.

Conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy can cause significant damage to your vision over time, but often don’t present any obvious signs in the early stages.

That’s why regular eye exams are so important. They allow an eye care professional to detect problems before you even notice them, ensuring that issues are caught early when they’re easier to treat.

Even if you’re seeing fine and don’t have any discomfort, an eye exam can help protect your long-term vision health. Think of it like a preventative maintenance check for your eyes.

We can’t speak to whether or not you should avoid Newark Airport, but we do have an opinion on screens before bed.

It’s so tempting to bring our phones to bed and mindlessly scroll before falling asleep, but your brain needs a break! 📱💤

Avoiding screens before bed helps your mind wind down for a deeper, more restful sleep. Try a book, some light stretching, or just a few minutes of quiet reflection instead. 🌙✨

Eyecare tip! Eat More Leafy Greens

If you want to give your eyes some extra love, make sure to add more leafy greens to your diet!

Veggies like spinach, kale, and collard greens are packed with lutein and zeaxanthin, two powerful antioxidants that are essential for maintaining good eye health.

These compounds help filter harmful blue light, protecting the delicate cells in your eyes from damage and reducing the risk of age-related conditions like macular degeneration and cataracts. They also promote overall eye function by supporting the retina and reducing oxidative stress.

By incorporating these nutrient-rich greens into your meals, you’re not only nourishing your body but also taking proactive steps to keep your eyes sharp for years to come. 🥬👀

Plus, they’re versatile and easy to add to salads, smoothies, or even as a side dish!
