Summer is full of outdoor fun, but it's also a time when eye injuries from sports, yardwork, and recreational activities become more common. A few simple precautions can go a long way in protecting your vision.

Keep your eyes safe this summer:
• Wear safety glasses when mowing, trimming, or using power tools.
• Choose protective sports eyewear instead of regular glasses during games and recreational activities.
• Wear sunglasses with 100% UVA and UVB protection when spending time outdoors.
• Keep children protected with properly fitted eyewear during outdoor play.

Taking a few extra steps today can help prevent serious eye injuries and keep you enjoying everything summer has to offer. Schedule your comprehensive eye exam with our team to help keep your vision healthy all season long.

What if you could try out your vision before choosing your lens for cataract surgery? At Minnesota Eye Consultants, you can. We're excited to introduce VirtuaLens™, an innovative virtual reality experience that lets you preview your cataract lens options before treatment. Instead of simply hearing about the differences, you can see how different lenses may perform during everyday activities like driving, reading, and spending time outdoors.

Dr. Sherman Reeves recently had the chance to experience VirtuaLens, and we're excited to bring this technology to our patients.

Ready to see what's possible? Call (952) 888-5800 to schedule your cataract consultation and experience VirtuaLens for yourself!

The sun can affect your eyes every day, not just during the summer. UV Eye Safety Month is the perfect time to build simple habits that help protect your vision for years to come.

Protect your eyes by:
• Wearing sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays.
• Wearing a wide-brimmed hat to reduce direct sun exposure.
• Being extra cautious around water, sand, and concrete, which reflect UV rays.
• Remembering that UV exposure can occur even on cloudy days.
• Scheduling routine eye exams to monitor your long-term eye health.

Healthy vision starts with prevention. Make protecting your eyes part of your daily routine.

Protect your vision for the future and schedule an appointment today at https://www.mneye.com/request-an-appointment/ or call 952-888-5800.
