Eye See You!




Your eyes are a very important part of your body and taking care of them should be a priority. Have a comprehensive dilated eye exam is one way that you can take care of your vision health. According to the National Eye Institute, many eye disorders do not have outward symptoms and one must have an eye exam to diagnose these.

Staying up to date on your family's eye health history is important in order to know if you are prone to develop issues in the future. However, there are many actions you can take to keep your eyes healthy all year long! A few things you can do are:

  • living a healthy lifestyle
  • wearing protective eyewear
  • quit smoking
  • keeping your eyes/eyelids clean
  • giving your eyes a rest (put your phone down once in a while!)
Did you know that the average American looks at screens as much as 12 hours a day! Just like any other muscle in your body, putting that much wear and tear on a body part is going to cause some side effects. For more information on how to keep your eyes healthy, visit: Eye Health Tips
