🌷Spring is FINALLY here!🐝
The warmer weather makes it the perfect time to have fun outside. However, common eye conditions that occur in the spring season may prevent you from enjoying the sun and the great outdoors.
If you suffer from allergies or dry eye, our doctors at Whitewater Eye Centers have treatments that may help.
Spring is a good time to see your eye doctor for an eye exam and learn about treatments that are available to get your symptoms under control.

🍀Happy St. Patrick's Day!🍀
Green eyes are very rare, but did you know green eyes do not actually contain green pigment?
They contain small amounts of melanin and a yellow pigment called lipochrome. The green color is created by a reflection of light off the iris. These reflections, the amount of light, pupil size, and surroundings cause green eyes to appear to change in color, but this is only an illusion.
