Hi Everyone! Did you know that a hordeolum is usually caused by a bacterial staph infection and results in pain, swelling, and redness. A hordeolum looks like a pus-filled lump or pimple at the edge of the eyelid. Treatment includes warm compresses and antibiotic eye drops or ointments.

Hordeola can be prevented by keeping the eyelids clean, removing makeup at bedtime, replacing eye makeup every three months, and hand washing before touching the area around the eyes. Do not attempt to squeeze or drain the stye yourself.

** Contact your eye doctor immediately if the redness and swelling extend beyond your eyelid to your cheek or other parts of your face.**

👁️ November is Diabetic Eye Exam Awareness Month 👁️

At Eyecare Center of Rome, we want to remind our community how important regular eye exams are—especially if you’re living with diabetes.

Diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in your eyes, leading to a condition called diabetic retinopathy. In its early stages, it often has no symptoms, but over time it can cause vision loss or even blindness if left untreated.

The good news? With early detection and proper care, most vision loss from diabetic eye disease can be prevented. A comprehensive dilated eye exam allows us to detect changes before you notice any problems—helping protect your vision for years to come.

✨ If you have diabetes, schedule your annual eye exam with Eyecare Center of Rome this month.
Your eyes—and your future—are worth it. 💙
