Do I need to worry if my child has a lazy eye (strabismus)? If you notice that your child has a lazy eye, it’s important to make an appointment with a pediatric ophthalmologist as soon as possible. Your child may be completely healthy, but early intervention can correct the underlying cause of the condition and improve your child’s vision, health, and confidence. In rare cases, strabismus can be caused by an underlying trauma or disease, which is another reason why it’s important to schedule a screening and eye exam. Learn more about strabismus from the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus.

After cataract surgery, one thing that you should consider is your sleeping position. Sleeping on your side or stomach could put added pressure on your eye and affect the healing process. We recommend that you sleep on your back with your head elevated. You should also wear a protective eye shield while sleeping to prevent pressure on your eye and discourage yourself from rubbing or scratching your eye in your sleep. If you have any questions about cataract surgery recovery, call our office. https://bit.ly/43Ej0uG

Why do you need toric contact lenses? If your eye doctor prescribes toric contact lenses, it is because you have astigmatism. This is a very common condition that is diagnosed if your cornea is shaped like a football. It can cause blurry or distorted vision that can be corrected with a toric lens. Toric lenses are designed to provide different focusing powers across the lens to sharpen vision and prevent blurriness. If you’re concerned about vision changes or need to schedule an eye exam, call us now. https://bit.ly/49EkQOn
