🎃 Happy Halloween from the ARC Team!

We might be retina specialists, but today we’re all about the fun-sized joy. 👻

From pumpkin socks to costume contests (and maybe a floating eyeball cake), our team knows how to keep it festive — and focused on sight.

👁️ Fun Fact: Bats have great night vision thanks to their specialized retinas!

Stay safe, stay spooky — and protect those peepers!

👁️ Myth or Fact: You can’t hurt your retina by rubbing your eyes too hard.

👻 MYTH. Aggressive rubbing can lead to retinal damage — including tears, inflammation, or worsening of existing conditions like keratoconus or PVD.

It’s not just kids who rub when they’re tired — adults do it too.

When in doubt, call the experts.

Yes — if left untreated.

Diabetic retinopathy is a top cause of vision loss in U.S. adults and often starts with no warning signs.

If you're newly diagnosed with diabetes — or have had it for years — your retina should be part of your care plan.

We provide diabetic retinal monitoring and treatment throughout Arizona.

UV exposure in Arizona doesn’t end when the temperature drops.

Autumn sunlight still poses risks to your macula and retina, especially during long outdoor activities like hiking or sports.

☀️ Wear 100% UV-blocking sunglasses year-round.
🧢 Bonus: A wide-brim hat reduces exposure by up to 50%.

Sudden cloudiness in one eye may not be a smudge on your glasses — it could be a sign of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or early macular edema.

This is especially common in adults over 60 with vascular risk factors.

RVO can strike fast — but treatment is most effective when started early.

Increased digital time has raised concerns about kids’ eye health — but it’s not just nearsightedness we worry about.

Prolonged screen exposure may strain the developing macula, especially in children with underlying retinal disorders or family history of vision problems.

We provide pediatric retina consultations across Arizona.

Hypertension doesn’t just affect your heart — it can damage the tiny blood vessels in your retina, leading to hypertensive retinopathy.

Signs may include:
- Headache with blurred vision
- Swelling around the macula
- Bleeding inside the eye

Your retina reveals what your blood pressure may be hiding.

❌ Myth: Floaters are harmless and always go away.
✅ Truth: While many are benign, some floaters signal serious issues like a retinal tear, detachment, or hemorrhage.

If floaters suddenly increase, or come with flashes, shadows, or blurriness — get checked right away.

Retina care isn’t one-size-fits-all. Let’s figure out what your eyes are telling you.
