Broken glasses? Let us help. 🛠️👓

A loose screw or bent arm is tempting to fix with super glue and a kitchen screwdriver — but DIY repairs often do more harm than good. More importantly, a misaligned frame can change how your lenses sit, directly affecting how clearly you see.

Before you reach for the tool drawer, bring them in. Our team can properly realign your frames and replace parts safely to ensure your glasses sit comfortably and function exactly as they should.

KEEP YOUR CONTACTS OUT OF THE WATER 🌊👁️

Summer means lake days and pool afternoons, but it's easy to forget your contacts are still in! Water and contact lenses are a risky mix. Lenses can trap water and germs against your eye, raising the risk of irritation or serious infection.

Keep your eyes safe without slowing down your summer:

🥽 Pack prescription goggles for swimming to see clearly and stay protected.
👓 Switch to glasses for shower-and-go mornings and beach hangs.
🧴 If water splashes in, take your lenses out immediately and clean them.

Heading to the lake this weekend? Plan ahead — your eyes will thank you! 👇

SUMMER READING STARTS WITH CLEAR EYES 📖👀

Library hauls, the next chapter under a blanket fort, comic books on a rainy afternoon. Summer is full of reading, even when school's out. So much of it happens through your child's eyes, and when vision is off, it can show up as headaches, fatigue, or losing their place on the page.

A children's eye exam checks more than letters on a chart. We look at focus, tracking, teaming, and overall eye health, so the little readers in your life can settle into a good story all summer long.

Book your child's eye exam with us. We love helping families look after their kids' eyes.

3 TIPS FOR BUYING NEW SUNGLASSES ☀️😎

Sunglasses do more than top off your summer look — they help protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. Before you grab your next pair, keep these three checks in mind:

✅ Look for UV400 protection — it blocks 99–100% of UVA and UVB rays.
✅ Consider polarization to cut glare on the road, water, and bright pathways.
✅ Make sure the fit is comfortable and the lenses cover your full field of view.

Visit our clinic today to find your new favorite pair of sunglasses!

ROCKIES READY 🏔️😎

Whether you are out on the trail, paddling a lake, or grabbing a patio on a sunny afternoon, a good pair of sunglasses is part of the kit. UV exposure does not take a day off — and your eyes deserve the same protection you give your skin.

Look for UV400 lenses and a fit that stays put on the move. Stop by and let us help you pick out a pair built for your adventures.

3 TIPS FOR MANAGING DRY EYES 💧👁️

Dry, gritty, or tired eyes can sneak up on you — especially after long days at the screen or in our dry Calgary air. A few small habits can help:

✅ Take screen breaks — try the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds).
✅ Stay hydrated and use a humidifier indoors when the air feels dry.
✅ Talk to your optometrist about lubricating drops and a tailored management plan.

If symptoms keep coming back, book an exam so we can look at what is going on and recommend the right next steps.

TAKE YOUR EYES OUTSIDE 🌲👁️🌞

Did you know? The front surface of your eyes (the cornea) draws oxygen directly from the air. Time outside — away from screens and indoor environments — gives your eyes a chance to breathe and reset.

Daylight exposure has also been linked to healthier eye development in children and may help ease eye strain in adults. Whether it's a hike, a coffee on the patio, or a walk around the block, your eyes will thank you.

Step outside this week — the air is good for more than just your lungs.

SIMPLE HABITS TO REDUCE DIGITAL EYE STRAIN 📱👁️

Long stretches on screens can leave your eyes tired, dry, and a little out of focus by the end of the day. A few small changes go a long way:

✅ Try the 20-20-20 rule — every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
✅ Blink often. We blink less when staring at screens, which can lead to dryness.
✅ Set your screen about an arm's length away and slightly below eye level.
✅ Take real breaks — step outside, look at the horizon, stretch.

If screen time is wearing on your eyes, an eye exam can help us see what is going on and talk about lens options that may help.
