Eyecare, eyewear, and fashion through the eyes of an optometrist, Dr. Mei Fleming. http://instagram

I’ll admit it, I’m a fashion lover and an optometrist, so even my “minimal” eyewear isn’t that minimal 😎 This rimless aviator with gold details has been one of my go-to pairs lately. It’s lightweight, stylish, and goes with literally everything. ✨
I’d love to know what you think about rimless eyewear 👓

So much of our overall health shows through the eyes — often before we notice any symptoms. During Diabetes Awareness Month, I want to remind you that diabetes, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol or any cardiovascular issues can all quietly affect the eyes long before symptoms appear.🫣🫣🫣

This is why routine eye exams aren’t just about checking your vision — they’re about examining the eye health to protect your long-term vision and quality of life.🫡 At , every exam is a chance to understand what your eyes are telling us and create a plan that supports your vision and well-being.🙌🙌🙌

If it’s been over a year since your last exam, this your reminder to schedule one — your future self will thank you!

Have your eyes been feeling dry, irritated, or puffy even after using lubricating drops? Sometimes it’s not Dry Eye Disease (DED) — it could be Thyroid Eye Disease (TED).👀👀👀

TED is an autoimmune disorder that affects the muscles and tissues around the eyes, often linked with thyroid imbalance.
TED causes inflammation that leads to redness, swelling, gritty, or uncomfortable feeling that’s easily mistaken for dry eye disease.😔😔

During Thyroid Eye Disease Awareness Week, I want to remind you that true relief starts with determining the cause of your eye symptoms. If your “dry eyes” come with swelling, pressure, double vision or light sensitivity, a comprehensive eye exam is necessary to uncover what’s really going on.

As a dry eye specialist, I want to help you find the why behind your symptoms and create a plan that brings true comfort and clarity.👌👌👌

Today is World Diabetes Day 💙 and a reminder that diabetes doesn’t just affect your blood sugar. It can quietly affect your eyes long before you notice any symptoms. The truth is, you can’t feel or see the early stage diabetic damage to retinal blood vessels. That’s why eye doctors are often the first to detect it.👀👀👀

A comprehensive eye exam that includes a retinal scan (OCT) can reveal these early changes before vision loss occurs. Diabetic vision loss is preventable with early detection, lifestyle changes, and consistent follow-up. 🙌

If you or someone you love is living with diabetes or could be at risk of having diabetes, take this as your reminder to schedule your yearly eye exam. 👌👌👌

Tomorrow is World Diabetes Day, and I want to remind you of something most people don’t realize — an eye exam can often be when diabetes is detected and diagnosed. 🩺🩺🩺

Diabetes doesn’t just affect your blood sugar.‼️‼️
It quietly impacts the blood vessels throughout your body, and yes, this includes the blood vessels in your eyes.👀 That’s why your annual comprehensive eye exam is so important. It’s not just about updating your prescription — it’s about protecting your eye health which is linked to your overall health. 👌

During Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month, take a moment to schedule your annual eye exam (and encourage someone you love to do the same). Because early detection can change everything. 🙌🙌🙌

If your eyes often itch, burn, sting, water, or blur, it could be more than just eye irritation — it might be dry eye disease. 👀👀👀And it’s usually more than one single cause, which is why I always start with a thorough & detailed eye exam to figure out what the underlying causes are. From there, we design a treatment plan that may include:
• Energy-based therapies — IPL, radiofrequency, or LED light
• Blepharo Exfoliation - removes Demodex mites
• Meibomian Gland Expression - to unclogging of the eyelid glands
• Amniotic Membrane therapy - rehabilitation for deep healing and hydration
• Serum tears therapy - advanced comfort via growth factors

My goal isn’t just to give you temporary symptom relief — it’s to address to root of the problem.👌👌👌 If you’ve been living with burning, watery, or irritated eyes, don’t ignore these signs. Book a Dry Eye Evaluation at — we’ll help you create a plan that’s tailored for you. 🙌💛

Your eyelids are one of the most delicate parts of your face, and when they swell, it’s your body’s way of telling you something’s off.🙅🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️ Sometimes it’s a mild irritation, but other times, it’s your skin or glands begging for help.👀👀

I often see that my patients will try to self-treat with either warm compresses, creams, or eye drops they may conveniently have. But when swelling gets worse or doesn’t go away within days, that’s a sign your eyes need professional help.👌👌

My next video, let’s talk about when eyelid swelling becomes something more serious.

If you’ve ever experienced this or have questions about your eyelid health, ask away in the comments below. I’m here to help.

You’ve probably seen me talk about this in my two reels from last week (and if you haven’t, go check them out!) — one about the hidden dangers of eye inflammation and the other on simple daily habits that help.

Here’s a quick visual guide to bring it all together.💫
Because inflammation doesn’t just happen in your body — it can quietly affect your eyes too. The way you eat, sleep, and manage stress all play a part, and the good news is that small daily choices make a big difference. 🫶🫶🫶

If there’s something in this post you’d like me to elaborate on, let me know in the comments. I’m always happy to help. 🤗🤗🤗
