Cold weather, wind, and indoor heating can make dry eye symptoms worse during the winter months. If your eyes feel dry, irritated, or gritty, you’re not alone.

Common winter dry eye symptoms may include:
• Burning or stinging
• Redness
• A gritty or sandy feeling
• Blurry vision that comes and goes

If symptoms persist, your eye doctor can help determine the cause and recommend treatment options.

January Is Glaucoma Awareness Month

Glaucoma is a leading cause of vision loss and blindness in the United States — and many people don’t know they have it. That’s because glaucoma often has no early symptoms.

Call our clinic to schedule a comprehensive eye exam and protect your vision. Early detection matters.

Did you know that you can customize your vision after cataract surgery?

The RxSight is implanted in the eye when a patient receives cataract surgery. Once the eyes have healed over the span of two or three weeks, the patient's vision is then adjusted by a series of office-based light treatment procedures that only take a few minutes each. During these procedures, the vision is corrected with the Light Delivery Device (LDD) in order to modify the shape of the lens, which alters your vision. The lens can be modified two to four times for optimal results, but not every patient will require the same amount of adjustments.

Patients who received the Light Adjustable Lens followed by adjustments were twice as likely to achieve 20/20 vision at 6 months without glasses as those who received a standard monofocal IOL.

Contact our office to learn more about benefits of both cataract surgery and RxSight.
