An eye examination is not simply a letter chart. It also considers your vision, eye health and how your eyes work together, with checks selected for your individual needs.

Ever looked up from a screen and realised you have barely blinked?

Long, uninterrupted screen use can leave eyes feeling tired or dry. Change your focus regularly, blink fully, reduce distracting glare and position the screen at a comfortable distance.

If discomfort or blurred vision persists, arrange an eye examination with Leith Opticians: https://leithopticians.co.uk/make-appointment/

Choosing new glasses should feel enjoyable, not rushed.

Frame shape, bridge fit, colour and how the glasses sit all influence the final choice. As an independent practice, Leith Opticians offers time to try different styles and get practical guidance from the team.

🌒 Don’t sneak a peek - it’s not worth it.

A partial solar eclipse will be visible across the UK this evening, and it can be very tempting to take a quick look.

Please don’t.

Looking directly at the Sun, even during an eclipse, can cause permanent damage to the retina - and the damage can occur without pain at the time.

Ordinary sunglasses are not safe for viewing an eclipse, no matter how dark or expensive they are. If you want to look directly, only use genuine solar eclipse glasses or viewers that meet ISO 12312-2 safety standards.

No proper eclipse glasses? Enjoy it indirectly instead - a simple pinhole viewer is a safe option.

Enjoy the spectacle, but protect your sight. 👁️🌒

If you have looked directly at the Sun and notice any change in your central vision afterwards, contact your local optometrist for advice.

Sunglasses should feel as good as they look.

A well-fitted pair can make bright summer days more comfortable, while the right lenses and UV protection matter just as much as the frame shape. Prescription sunglasses can also be an option if you need vision correction outdoors.

Explore the sunglasses guidance from Leith Opticians and ask the team what suits your prescription, lifestyle and style:

That awkward moment when you clean your glasses… and discover it was the windows all along. 👓😅

On the bright side, the lenses are sparkling.

If cleaning your lenses does not improve the view, it may be worth checking when your next eye examination is due. Follow the interval recommended by your optometrist.

Summer eye-care reminder: contact lenses and water do not mix 💧👁️

Swimming pools, hot tubs, the sea and even shower water can expose contact lenses to microorganisms that may cause serious eye infections. The safest approach is to remove your lenses before swimming, showering or using a hot tub, and never rinse lenses or their case with tap water.

If you need clear vision in the water, ask your optometrist about prescription swimming goggles or other suitable options.

If an eye becomes red, painful, sensitive to light or your vision blurs, remove the lenses and seek urgent professional advice.

Your iris is far more than just your eye colour 👁️

The iris is the coloured ring surrounding the pupil, and it works a little like the aperture of a camera. In bright conditions, it makes the pupil smaller. In darker conditions, it allows the pupil to widen so more light can enter the eye.

The amount and distribution of pigment within the iris help determine whether your eyes appear blue, green, hazel or brown. Its intricate pattern is also highly distinctive to each person.

Your iris may be small, but it plays a major role in helping you see comfortably in changing light.

**Sun cream protects their skin. Sunglasses protect their eyes.**

With the summer holidays here, children are spending more time outdoors - but many parents forget that young eyes need UV protection too.

Look for children’s sunglasses with proper UV protection, ideally marked **CE, UKCA or ISO 12312-1**.

Not sure what to choose? Pop in and we’ll help you find safe, comfortable sunglasses for your child.
