Flu is surging right now—many areas are reporting high activity, and it’s already shaping up to be a tough season. In this short video, Dr. Edward Paul shares a few simple, practical steps to help you and your family avoid the flu (and what to do if symptoms start).

And with Dr. Paul’s Ph.D. in nutrition, he brings a unique perspective on how we can safely support the immune system—using evidence-based, natural supplements—to help combat this year’s flu season.

👉 Watch, share, and tag someone you want to keep healthy this winter.

Low vision glasses aren’t “just magnifiers.” Some are designed for driving. Others are built for theatergoers or avid readers. Our doctors match you to the right solution for your goals.

👁️ If You Have Macular Degeneration and You’ve Been Told “Nothing Else Can Be Done” — Read This

Every week, people walk into our offices discouraged, frustrated, and convinced they’ve reached the end of the road with their vision.

They’ve heard:
❌ “You’ll just have to learn to live with it.”
❌ “There’s nothing more we can do.”
❌ “Just use bigger magnifiers.”

But then… something remarkable happens.

✅ A grandmother reads her grandchild’s birthday card again.
✅ A retired driver recognizes road signs for the first time in years.
✅ A man with macular degeneration reads the newspaper — out loud.

These moments aren’t miracles.
They’re the result of low vision optometry — a highly specialized branch of care most patients are never told about.

If you have:
• Macular Degeneration
• Stargardt Disease
• Glaucoma
• Diabetic Retinopathy
• Albinism
• Optic Nerve Damage

…you may still have options. Using advanced technology — bioptic telescopes, micro-optics, and custom-designed visual systems — we help patients regain abilities that ordinary glasses can’t restore.

✨ Over 90% of our patients experience improvement.
✨ Many rediscover reading, driving, and independence.

If someone once told you “nothing else can be done,” that doesn’t mean there’s nothing else out there — it just means you haven’t found the right doctor yet.
