Last week Dr. McBride once again attended the WGI Percussion World Championships in Dayton, OH. This indoor marching percussion competition features both scholastic and independent divisions with a maximum age of 23. A few performances in particular caught Dr. McBride's eye. I wonder why. . .

The days are getting longer, and that is great news for your child's eyes!
Research shows that 2 or more hours outdoors a day may help reduce the risk of myopia in children. Spring is the perfect season to build that habit as a family.
Outdoor time is just one piece of the puzzle though. If your child is already myopic, treatment options are available to help slow progression and protect their long-term vision.

Glasses correct blurry vision, but they don't slow down myopia progression. And as myopia worsens, it can increase the risk of serious eye diseases later in life.
Myopia management treatments are clinically proven to help slow progression and protect your child's long-term vision.

We recently celebrated a couple of milestones: Dr. Blanks managed to survive another year on this planet, and Alena has been part of our family for six years! Dr. Blanks is pictured here with his piece of German chocolate cake, and Alena poses with her card of well-wishes. Not pictured is Alena's cheesecake wheel, which we all enjoyed. Congratulations, Dr. Blanks and Alena!
