☀️ Your Eyes Need Sun Protection, Too

We all know not to stare at the sun, but even indirect exposure can harm your eyes.

Without proper protection, short-term UV exposure can cause photokeratitis, while long-term exposure increases the risk of cataracts, macular degeneration, and more.

Not all sunglasses are created equal.
👓 Look for lenses that block 99–100% of UVA & UVB rays
🌤 Choose lenses that block 75–90% of visible light
🎨 Gray-tinted lenses can offer the best color recognition

And here’s the kicker 47% of consumers don’t check UV protection before buying sunglasses.

Protect your vision year-round and talk to your AOA Doctor of Optometry about the right UV protection for you.

Cyber attacks are becoming one of the most financially significant risks facing optometric practices.

A single cyber incident can cost a practice anywhere from $8,000 to more than $100,000 in recovery services such as forensic investigations, system rebuilds and cybersecurity support. Add in potential downtime, lost revenue, ransomware demands and HIPAA compliance costs, and the financial impact can grow quickly.

If patient-protected health information is involved, practices must also comply with breach notification, documentation and reporting requirements under privacy laws.

To help manage these risks, American Optometric Association members have access to cyber liability insurance customized for optometric practices through AOAExcel’s endorsed partner, Lockton Affinity.

Financial protection and preparation can help practice owners recover faster and focus on what matters most—patient care.
