The Importance of Blue Light Eyewear

Blue light is the light produced by backlit screens on phones, LED TVs, computers, and handheld game systems. In moderation, it’s perfectly harmless, but screen time has increased by 60% over the past year. Is your child complaining of frequent headaches, blurry vision, or trouble focusing? This may be a symptom of too much exposure to blue light!

Fortunately, there’s a simple solution. Your child’s eyeglasses can be fit with specially designed lenses that filter out blue light, enabling them to focus in the classroom, while doing homework, or anywhere else — safely and comfortably!

The Importance of Annual Eye Exams for Kids

We all know that the ability to see clearly can be a difference maker in when it comes to success in the classroom. But, did you know that 1 in 4 kids has an undiagnosed vision problem severe enough to affect their performance in school?

Children grow and develop quickly, and rapid changes in their quality of vision are not uncommon. It’s critical to bring your child for an annual eye exam, even if they don’t currently wear glasses or contacts! Plus, annual eye health checkups allow the doctor to look for signs of pediatric eye diseases and provide treatment and management as needed.

Vision Therapy and Your Children

Not every eye condition we find during an exam can be fixed by eyewear. Sometimes, children have trouble seeing clearly or focusing their eyes due to issues like amblyopia (“lazy eye”) or strabismus (“crossed eyes”).

When conditions like these cause your child to struggle in the classroom or on the sports field, vision therapy may be the answer. With specialized, dedicated treatment that you won’t find anywhere else in the region, we’re able to help anyone overcome visual processing issues and have an easier time in school and at home.

The most professional and kind staff. I will recommend this business to everyone. I had the best experience ever. They made me feel like family and I will always be a client as long as they are in operation.

Everyone had a wonderful attitude and went above and beyond. Their facility was very clean and extremely organized. This was my family’s first visit and I will absolutely continue to go back. Very thorough and knowledgeable. Takes time to explain problems for those who have them.

They were absolutely FANTASTIC with my children. The staff helped get insurance straightened out, they were very patient as my children were trying on glasses and answered any questions while treating them like grown adults. I was VERY pleased. We will definitely be going back every year!

Very personable and wonderful staff. I really appreciate the doctor answering all of my questions and taking the time to help each of my children with their vision exams.

They were so wonderful with my son. He was a little nervous with this being his first time at the eye doctor, and they couldn’t have been any better. The whole staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. They made him feel so comfortable and made the whole experience a fun and memorable one. I will never go anywhere else. I highly recommend them!

My family loves everyone there! Even with a family of 6 and 3+ appointments at once, they get us in and out. They are always so sweet, understanding, and helpful.
