On this Monday we are talking about World Glaucoma Week.

Glaucoma is what we consider a "silent" condition because it doesn't typically have early symptoms. It involves a build up of pressure that slowly damages the optic nerve, which is the vital link between your eye and your brain.

Early detection is key, and this week we encourage you to book a professional eye exam so that your Optometrist can assist in the best treatment plan moving forward.

Always remember to take care of, and love your eyes. They are very precious organs!

Today is International HPV Awareness Day. You might be thinking, well what does this have to do with my vision? And the answer is, quite a bit. The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) doesn't just affect one part of the body, it can also impact the delicate surfaces of our eyes.

Certain strains of the virus are linked to:

• Conjunctival Papillomas: Small, painless, cauliflower-like growths on the white of the eye or inside the eyelid.

• Surface Health: High-risk strains can sometimes lead to rare ocular surface cancers, especially when combined with high UV (sun) exposure.

The good news is that awareness and prevention go a long way, see the following tips below:

1. Protect your eyes from the sun. Since UV rays can make the eye more vulnerable, always wear your UV-protected sunglasses when outdoors.

2. Do not rub your eyes. Avoid touching your eyes with unwashed hands to prevent the spread of any viruses to the ocular surface.

3. Get a professional opinion. If you notice a new bump or redness that won't go away, or a gritty feeling in one spot make sure to book an eye exam.

On this 3 March we focus on World Birth Defects Day.

This day raises awareness for the thousands of babies born around the world with structural or functional changes that can affect their health and development. While many birth defects are readily visible, others affect the internal systems, including the delicate organs of sight.

Sometimes, babies can be born with conditions that impact their eyes, such as congenital cataracts, glaucoma, or issues with retinal development. It is important to understand that early detection and intervention are key.

A newborn baby’s eyes should be checked shortly after birth, and regular vision screenings are recommended throughout childhood. Often early treatment can significantly improve long-term outcomes for a baby’s eyes.

Let us spread the word together. Share this post to help others understand the importance of early detection and support for families.

Your vision is your most important tool, and this March is Save Your Vision Month, dedicated to bringing attention to your eyes, and helping you understand why they are so precious.

Always remember that prevention is the best recipe for long-term health. Here are a few symptoms you should not ignore. If you experience any of these, it is time to book an eye examination with your Optometrist:

• Persistent headaches, especially after reading or using a computer.
• Blurry or double vision, where you are struggling to focus on the fine print.
• Eye strain or fatigue, feeling like your eyes are heavy or burning.
• Sensitivity to light, especially if you feel a sudden discomfort in bright environments.
• Dry, itchy or red eyes, this is often a sign of digital eye strain.

Treat your eyes to a professional screening this month and give these precious organs the attention they deserve 💙

Here are your Top 4 Tips for lens care and eye safety:

1) The 20 second wash: Always wash your hands with plain soap before touching your eyes.

2) Give them a rub: A gentle rub in your palm helps clear away gunk and buildup.

3) Keep tap water away: Never use tap water on your lenses. It carries bacteria that can cause infections, stick to fresh lens solution only.

4) The 3 month swap: Old contact lens cases are a magnet for bacteria. Replace yours and get a fresh one every 90 days.

We absolutely love being out and about and connecting with all of you! 🧡💙 But imagine our delight when South Africa’s very own legendary music icon Black Coffee came to visit. It’s not every day you get to spend time with a global pioneer right on your doorstep! 🇿🇦✨

What made this even more special was seeing the incredible work being done through the Gift of Sight project as the Black Coffee Foundation and the South African Optometric Association have teamed up to make sure our schoolchildren can see a brighter future 👁️
