25.01.2022 Interesting Eye facts to know - More than half of our brain is involved with sight in some capacity. - Our eyes blink over 25 000 time a day. As the cornea does not have any blood we need this blinking for the cornea to remain lubricated and nourished. - Light reaching our eyes helps the circadian rhythm, determining when we are asleep or awake. Compromises here cause insomnia and fatigue.... - 80% of the worlds vision problems could be prevented. Talk to your optometrist about you vision needs, and about sunglasses, blue light computer glasses, and protective eye ware. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #sunglasses #Visionhealth #prescriptionsunglasses #eyefacts #shades #protecteyes #protectiveeyeware

22.01.2022 SUMMER IS HERE !! Woohoo! Are you prepared for this coming summer holidays? Come in and shop our new range of sunglasses and optical eye wear

22.01.2022 OPTIONS FOR SUNGLASSES There are many alternative options for sunglasses. If we avoid the cheap and nasty types most of the others work quite well. Polarized glasses are a common option, and very effective for reducing glare. They remove the shiny reflections that strain our eyes and cause us to blink. Blue blockers are popular with outdoor adventurers. The lenses reduce blue light and UV. The lower blue light is thought to help with vision contrast because our eyes cant fo...cus blue light as easily as other colours. Mirrored sunglasses use two way mirror technology; the lenses are literally mirrors to any observer. But the individual wearing the glasses benefits from the significantly reduced glare, and a bright clear field of vision. The most important thing with all Sunglasses is UV protection. Insist on 100% UV sunglasses. Shop 25 Lennox Village Cnr.

22.01.2022 Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve. It leads to compromised eyesight and possible blindness. Early intervention can prevent further eyesight damage in glaucoma, but once vision damage, once it has occurred, is permanent. The onset of glaucoma can be gradual or sudden, sometimes painful, sometimes painless. Vision may slowly deteriorate, or suddenly become blurred. Any sudden eye pain and vision loss is a legitimate medical emergency. Sight loss... from glaucoma varies, but most commonly the peripheral vision is effected; the patient can only see directly ahead. This loss of vison has recently been linked to cognitive decline; patient with glaucoma are likely to suffer at least mild memory loss, absent mindedness, poor comprehension and reduced ability to make mental calculations. The exact causes and mechanisms of glaucoma are not fully understood, but it is linked to pressure within the eye. Early treatment can prevent further vision loss from glaucoma. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #seewell #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #eyefacts #protecteyes #glaucoma.

18.01.2022 Benefits of Chocolate: We were all told that leafy green vegetables were good for us,and that chocolate was junk food, and should be kept to a minimum. Eating cocoa rich chocolate, along with a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables, can significantly slow down macular degeneration. This helps us have better eyesight into our old age.... It is only really dark chocolate that gives any significant benefit to our eyes; it should be 70% cocoa or more. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #sunglasses #Visionhealth #prescriptionsunglasses #eyefacts #shades #protecteyes #protectiveeyeware

18.01.2022 Advantages of wearing Sunglasses 1. You see better in extremely bright conditions, especially if the glasses have UV filters, polarization and anti-glare coating. 2. Your eyes are less strained under normal sunny conditions 3. You wont get sunburn around your eyes, an area prone to burning. More than 10% of all skin cancers are around the eye or eyelid.... 4. Sunglasses massively reduce the risk of cataracts in old age. 5. Significantly reducing the damage to your eyes that lead to macular degeneration Wearing Sunglasses whenever outdoors reduces skin aging around the eyes. We will look many years younger if we habitually wear sunglasses. Consider prescription sunglasses or stylish designer brand name sunnies. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #sunglasses #Visionhealth #prescriptionsunglasses #sunnies #shades #sunshades #stylishsunglasses #designersunglasses

18.01.2022 Our eyes and vision are linked with our general health and the working of our whole body. Optometrists and doctors can see symptoms of many health issues by examining out eyes. - Corneal infections often show up first as white spots in the eyes. - Stress can appear as an eye twitch - Diabetes affects the eyes with irregularities in the retina causing blurred vision. - High cholesterol shows up as a white ring around the iris.... - High blood pressure shows up in damaged blood vessels in the eye. - Dry or red eyes are often connected to allergies, some of which are serious. - Floaters in the eye, especially if the rapidly increase in number, are a sign of retinal damage. This must be immediately treated. - Sun exposure can appear as discoloured patches on the whites of eyes. - Jaundice appears as a yellow colour in the eyes and skin. Some red or dry eyes might just be a symptom of overwork, but it is best to let an optometrist check our eyes. Many issues are easily treated if discovered in their early stages. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #seehealth #Visionhealth

18.01.2022 Bad Habits for Eyes Our genetics are probably the biggest influence on our eyesight, but the environment and personal habits can also make a very significant different. Factors to consider are: - Not Blinking A dry eye will itch and be a distraction. Blinking keeps the eyes suitably moist. Help through eye drops might be needed for some individuals. ... - Not wearing sunglasses. UV protection sunglasses all but remove UV damage. - Sitting too close to monitors or TVs. The may well be the result of near-sightedness rather than the cause; get your eyes checked, and consider computer glasses. - Not wearing safety goggles. Dont take the risk. - Being reliant on eye drops; see if there is an underlying cause for the problem. - Neglecting health the blood has circulating fluids, so high blood pressure, diabetes or poor circulation can affect eyesight. - Reading habits. Hold the book at least 30cm (1 ft) from the eyes, and look away at a distant object every 20 minutes or so. - Computer habits. Look away from the screen every 20 minutes for at least 20 seconds. - Watching TV in the dark. Instead, have a partially lit room, half as bright as the screen. - Rubbing eyes is dangerous, especially if there is a foreign object in them. Use a cold, damp cloth for itching, or flush out any objects with water. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #eyefacts #protecteyes #eyewarning #warningsign #eyehabits

18.01.2022 Eye floaters As we age it is not uncommon to experience floaters, strange shapes that appear in our vision. Floaters are tiny protein strands within the fluid of the eye, rather like pieces of jelly floating in water. They cast shadows on the retina, which appear large because of how close they are. ... Floaters become more common as people age, though a few individuals experience them form birth. They do not cause any real harm, being more or a distraction that a serious problem. Many people find that they become much less noticeable over time. A few floaters are no cause for concern, even if they are initially distracting. A sudden increase in the number of floaters could mean a retinal tear, especially if the individual also experiences bright flashes. This needs to be immediately treated by a specialist. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #eyefacts #protecteyes #eyewarning #warningsign #floaters #eyefloaters

15.01.2022 Astigmatism Astigmatism is a vision disorder that occurs in about 28% of the population. The eyesight is blurred or distorted to some extend because the eyeball is slightly misshaped, slightly elongated rather that perfectly spherical. In addition to making distant objects blurred astigmatism will tend to cause headaches, tiredness, eye muscle soreness, irritability and poor concentration. ... Astigmatism can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses. A brief period of adaption to the glasses or contacts is expected, usually just a few days, but the improvement to eyesight is well worth the effort. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #astigmatism

14.01.2022 Size and Style for All There are very few cases of one size fitting all, or one design suiting all. We need different prescriptions to suit each individuals eyes, and individuals benefit from frames that fit well and suit their face. Presently the optometrist will fit the correct prescription lenses to a set of frames that suit the individual. Its a matter of both personal taste and finding something that suits the individuals appearance. The glasses are tailored to the in...dividual. This could become more personalized in the future. The Advent of 3D printing means glasses can literally made for an individual, much like a bespoken suit. At the moment we can produce a complete prescription pair of glasses in about an hour. There is no need to be without you glasses at all. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #seehealth #Visionhealth #customglasses #bespokenglasses #3Dprinting

14.01.2022 Eye Myths - Carrots will not improve eyesight beyond what is normal. Carrots are recommended for their health benefits, but they are not magical. Lack of carrots will compromise vision, - Reading in dim light might strain your eyes and make you tired or irritable, but this probably wont permanently damage your eyes or create the need for glasses later in life. - Eye exercises will never really prevent the need for glasses. They might help prevent problems from occurring, but... will do little to fix problems that are already there. They might help make the best of the eyesight we have. - Wearing or not wearing glasses will not really cause the eyes to get worse. Glasses just focus the light correctly so that the eyes perceive it clearly. - Computer screens produce blue light (unless filtered) that will affect your eyes over time- it may increase the likelihood of cataracts in the elderly. It might increase the chances of being short sighted, but it is no worse than reading a book. - Colour blindness is more common in males, but some females also suffer. - Eyesight need not always get worse with age. Good diet, exercise and precautions (like safety glasses) go a long way to reducing the problems. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #s #Visionhealth #eyesightfacts

14.01.2022 How is Your Eyesight? Do you suffer any of these issues? - Vague tiredness - Eyestrain - Poor concentration... - Headaches with no apparent cause - Dizziness or motion sickness - Poor depth and distance judgement - Problems with hand-eye coordination, especially if never experienced before. - Reduced reading ability, miss-readings, or simple comprehension errors. - Reduced mental functioning - Blurred vision, either at close range or a distance. Then your eyes might need some help. Eyesight problems need to be addressed as quickly as possible. Other health issues may stem from untreated vision problems. Children with undiagnosed eyesight problems stand to suffer the most. They may not know what normal vison looks like, and have their education and social interaction severely compromised. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #seehealth #Visionhealth #customglasses

11.01.2022 STEAMY WINDOWS The Lenses in your glasses will steam up under some conditions. Obviously this defeats the purpose of having glasses, being able to see clearly, but the problem is not too difficult to rectify. - Anti-fog wipes are helpful. For a habit of carrying a few with you. - Glasses that sit far from you face are less prone to fogging up from your breath. - A small amount of shaving cream of soap on the lens is quite effective. Leave in on the lens for a few minutes, the...n polish it with a soft cloth. - Rain repellent spray is effective. - A mixture of equal parts water and vinegar with a little dish soap will make an effective anti-fog solution. Spray it on and dap dry with a paper towel. - Anti-fogging lenses are available, and are popular for sports like skiing. - If reading in the bath simply dip the glasses in the hot water beforehand. When the glasses are the same temperature as the air there will be minimal issues. - Avoid touching the glasses with your fingers. - Do not take advice that tell you to clean glasses with toothpaste. Most toothpastes are far too harsh and will scratch the surface, running the lenses. Shop 25 Lennox Village Cnr.

10.01.2022 What Our Eye Might Reveal Our body is an interconnected system. Serious Health problems can often leave tell-tale signs in our eyes. Recognizing these early signs can help us receive early treatment, which is always better. White Spots in the Cornea Signs of an infection. This is more likely to occur in individuals with contact lenses.... Eye twitch If this isnt from a genetic cause it is probably a sign of stress, which will take its toll on out mental and physical health. Blurred vision This could be anything from sight problems to diabetes. Always have the checked. White Ring around the Iris This is a symptom of high cholesterol, and connected to heart attacks and stroke. Dry eyes Quite possibly an allergy. This allergy may be causing you other problems, so have it checked. Yellow Eyes This is jaundice or a liver problem. Have this checked immediately! Optometrists can also see symptoms of high blood pressure when examining the eyes. All the more reason to have a regular check-up. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #eyefacts #protecteyes #eyewarning #warningsign

09.01.2022 UV light tend to be bad for our eyes. The lens in our eyes blocks some of it. But long term exposure to UV will cause cataracts and even short term exposure can damage vision. Good Sunglasses go a long way to protecting our eyes from UV. Look for glasses that say 100% UV protection. Good sunglasses are worth spending some money on. If we find a suitable pair we have both a stylish look and protection for our eyes. If you already wear glasses you can often get prescription ...sunglasses with at least a partial insurance rebate.

05.01.2022 BLUE LIGHT GLASSES It was a problem that did not exist before the digital age of computers monitor screens produce blue light that many of us stare at for several hours a day. This blue light has an effect on us. Light comes in all the colours of the rainbow, literally. Blue light is at one end of this colour spectrum, right before the invisible energy that causes sunburn, named Ultraviolet. Blue light can be good or bad for us depending on the circumstance. On the good si...de it wakes us up in the way that sunlight in the morning wakes us. On the bad side the blue light can keep us awake at night if we are using a computer, tablet or phone before bed. We are constantly exposed to blue light; but too much blue light may eventually cause degeneration of our eyesight when we are old. Glasses that block blue light can be useful. Older styles had orange/amber/red tinted lenses, but new types look like regular glasses. Wearing these glasses while using a computer significantly reduces our eyes exposure to blue light. Wearing them before bed can prevent insomnia. Shop 25 Lennox Village Cnr.

04.01.2022 Nutrition and Eyesight A good healthy diet will keep our eyesight in the best condition possible. It will not work miracles, but it will prevent many problems. It helps our eyes to be fully functional. There was a myth for many years that carrots improve eyesight. While they cannot increase eyesight beyond normal healthy vision they can prevent problems and potential blindness. Vitamin A is essential, and lack of this has been shown to cause blindness in many third world coun...tries. For healthy vision we recommend: - Omega 3 fatty acids fish and nuts. - Selenium Brown rice, brazil nuts, salmon and shell seafood. - Vitamin C any fruit. - Vitamin D Sunlight, fish, some fruit juice. - Zinc beef, turkey, pumpkin seeds. - Vitamin A carrots, eggs, beef, chicken. Avoiding fast and processed food is also good for our health and eyesight. Shop 25 Lennox Village Cnr.

02.01.2022 Computer Monitor Eye Strain In this technological era we all spend more time in front of computer monitors, TV screens of at least portable devices. This tends to strain our eyes to a certain extent. We can reduce eye strain by:... - Keeping screens at about arms length. This should be a comfortable distance for focusing our eyes, - Look away from the screen at least every 20 minutes, and spend 20 seconds focusing on something 20 feet away. The 20/20/20 rule. - Blink For some reason we stare at screens. - Keep the monitors from being too bright, and keep them from bright conditions (i.e.: direct Sunlight) or light that reflect off the screen. - Use a printer for reading long documents. - Try using larger text size on the screen. Computer glasses will reduce glare and blue light from any screen. This will greatly reduce eyestrain. Reducing blue light may also prevent eye problems in old age. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #Visionhealth #eyefacts #protecteyes #protectiveeyeware #computerglasses

01.01.2022 ~ More than Glasses ~ Of course glasses can correct you vision. However various coatings on the glasses can provide other benefits. 1. Anti-reflective coatings - will greatly reduce reflections from the glasses. The advantage is twofold the person wearing the glasses sees less light glare from bright lights (e.g. car headlights)... 2. Blue light filter (Crizal Prevencia lenses) - Blue light from computer screens and the sun slowly causes long term eye damage. 3. Sharp View UV - UV light is the invisible energy source that causes sunburn. It is removed by any quality pair of sunglasses. But some regular glasses can be UV coated too. 4. Anti-smudge, water resistant and anti-scratch coating are also available. #emuplainsoptometrist #emuplains #emuplainsvision #glassesemuplains #Vision #optometrist #clearvision #glasses #eyecheck #needglasses #seewell #childrensglasses #checkeyesight #visionloss #eyesight #contactlenses #optometristemuplains# #checkvision #eyewear #eyehealth #healtheyes #seehealth #Visionhealth #coating #glassescoating
