July is Eye Injury Awareness Month, so we wanted to share a few tips to keep those peepers safe: 💀 Safety first! Whether you're hammering away on a DIY project or shooting hoops with friends, always wear protective eyewear. It's like wearing a seatbelt for your eyes. 😎 ☠ If something finds its way into your eye, resist the urge to rub it out. Instead, flush your eye with clean water to rinse it away. 👻 Little ones around? Make sure household cleaners and chemicals are out of reach and safely stored. Let's keep those curious eyes protected. 👽 Don't forget your shades! Shielding your eyes from harmful UV rays is just as important as sunscreen for your skin.
Sunwear protection for your eyes is just as important as sunscreen for your skin! This summer, don't forget to pack your sunglasses for all your outdoor adventures. At our practice, we offer a variety of sun lenses that will reduce glare and provide 100% UV protection. Ask us about sun options at your next appointment.
