It’s our duty to keep your eyes safe so here’s some advice for the solar eclipse. Please DO NOT look directly at the Sun. It can cause permanent and serious damage to the vision.

Planning to watch this week's partial solar eclipse? ☀️🌙

If you're planning to watch it, it's important to do so safely.

Looking directly at the sun can cause serious damage to your eyes. Ordinary sunglasses don't provide enough protection, and viewing the eclipse through binoculars, a camera, or a telescope still puts you at risk.

Instead, use a safe viewing method, such as a pinhole projector or certified eclipse glasses with solar filters.

Did you know that cataracts are one of the most common causes of reduced vision cases in the UK?

June is Cataract Awareness Month, so here are some quick facts about cataracts that you should know:

👀 Cataracts occur when the lens in your eye starts to form cloudy patches, resulting in misty or blurry vision
🤓 People aged 50-59 can begin developing lens changes but don't present with symptoms until aged 60-69
🤯65% of people diagnosed with cataracts had no idea they even had cataracts

Here at Baird's, we can help you figure out what treatment options are available to you. Early detection can provide a wide range of benefits, so it is important to keep up with your annual sight test!

Call us at 01786 821397 to check when you're due, or book a sight test online at www.bairdoptometrists.com
