Myopia, or nearsightedness, makes distant objects appear blurry. When myopia becomes more severe, it can also increase the risk of certain eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma and cataracts.

Regular eye exams help monitor changes in vision and overall health of the eye over time.

Your family’s eye health can offer important information about your own risk.

Glaucoma and certain other eye conditions can run in families. Sharing what you know, even if the details are limited, can help your eye doctor determine what testing and follow-up care may be appropriate for you.

Before your next appointment, ask your family about their eye health history.

Your eyes need sun protection, too.

Long-term UV exposure can increase the risk of cataracts, eye growths, sunburned eyes and certain types of eye cancer. Protect your vision by wearing sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays whenever you're outdoors.

Ask your eye doctor how to better protect your eyes from the summer sun.

Vision screenings are helpful, but they don't evaluate overall eye health or catch every vision issue. As the school year approaches, a comprehensive eye exam can help ensure children are seeing and learning at their best.

Is your child's back-to-school eye exam on the calendar?

From reading bedtime stories to helping with homework, driving to practices and cheering from the sidelines, parents help their children see the world in so many ways.

Today is National Parents' Day and we're celebrating the parents, grandparents and caregivers who put their families first every day.

One of the best ways to care for the people who depend on you is to take care of yourself, too, including your vision.

Make your eye health a priority. Schedule an eye exam for yourself or a family member today.

Your skin isn't the only thing that needs protection from the sun.

Long-term UV exposure can increase the risk of cataracts and other eye conditions. When spending time outdoors, choose sunglasses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays and don't forget a wide-brimmed hat for additional protection.

Ask your eye doctor how you can better protect your eyes from the summer sun.

Difficulty seeing at night, increased glare from headlights and blurry or cloudy vision can all be signs of cataracts. Because these changes often happen gradually, many people don't realize how much their vision has changed until it begins affecting everyday activities.

Regular eye exams can help identify cataracts and determine when treatment may be appropriate.

If you've noticed changes in your vision, schedule an eye exam and talk with your eye doctor.
