Think of Your Vision this Fall

We’re facing a new kind of school year in 2020, and with remote work still in place for many parents, there’s more screen time all around. We’re reaching out in solidarity to remind you that, during this time, it’s important to take care of your vision — and your children’s vision. We can help you with that. Here are a few resources you can use to educate yourself on eye care during increased screen time and social distancing outdoors in the sunshine.

• Facts About Blue Light and Age-Related Macular Degeneration
• Eye Exams for Children: How Soon and How Often
• Discussing UV and Solar Blue Light Protection with Your Eye Doctor

We’re with you as you shift into this new learning and working environment. Contact us when you're in need of more support during this unique back-to-school season.
