Since 2015, Dr Justin Mora has been travelling to Laos annually as part of his work with Sight for All and the impact has been profound.

When he first arrived, there were no paediatric eye services in the country. Today, Laos has 3 trained paediatric ophthalmologists, a legacy built one visit at a time.

Last week, that work continued:
👁️ 50+ children seen
👁️ 8 sight-saving surgeries performed
👁️ 6 children given a chance to see a future that once wasn't possible.

Restoring sight. Changing futures. We couldn't be prouder of Dr Mora's dedication to this life-changing mission.

Laser eye surgery can let you get the most out of life, but not immediately. First, you’ll need to rest. Find out about recovery times, key milestones, and the best ways to recover.

AFTER SURGERY CARE
🔹To help prevent infection, you may need to wait for up to two weeks after surgery before using lotions, creams, or make-up around the eye.
🔹Avoid swimming and using hot tubs or whirlpools for 1-2 months.
🔹Avoid rubbing your eyes, this could dislodge the flap, requiring further treatment.
🔹The first couple of nights after LASIK, you may be asked by your doctor to wear protective shields over your eyes, to prevent bumping your eyes while you sleep. No shields are required at all after SMILE PRO.

GLP-1 Medications, like Wegovy and Ozempic, are powerful treatments, but they can also have knock-on effects when it comes to your vision.

WHAT ARE GLP-1 MEDICATIONS?
Medications like semaglutide (Wegovy and Ozempic), are known as GLP-1 Agonists. This medication helps to lower blood sugar levels and promote weight loss. They can lead to significant weight reduction and improve overall health, including lowering the risk of heart disease and stroke.

However, like any powerful treatment, there are a few things to be aware of, especially when it comes to your eye health.

GLP-1 MEDICATIONS AND DIABETES
GLP-1 medications improve blood sugar levels, sometimes quite quickly. While this is beneficial overall, rapid changes in blood sugar can temporarily affect the small blood vessels in the retina.

These medications aren’t directly harmful to the eye, instead it’s the sudden adjustment your body is going through that can cause problems.

In the first few months of taking these medications, there is a small risk that diabetic retinopathy may worsen temporarily.

SAFE USE OF GLP-1 MEDICATIONS
GLP-1 medications are highly effective and increasingly important in modern health care. The overall benefits of treatment are much greater than the risks.

To use GLP-1 medications safely, we recommend:
🔹Getting regular eye checks
🔹Report visual changes early
🔹Go slowly with dose increases, if you are at higher risk.
