How Proactive Can You Be with Eye Care?

how-proactive-can-you-be-with-eye-care.pnghow-proactive-can-you-be-with-eye-care.pngMarch is dedicated as National Nutrition Month and Save Your Vision Month, and as an organization, EyePromise® is heavily focused on the importance of nutrition and proactive eye care. Catching eye health concerns and beginning care early always leads to better patient outcomes. Nutrition is an important piece of most if not all early care plans, but how early can eye care professionals begin nutritional intervention? With EyePromise Screen Shield™ Teen, the answer is as young as 4 years old.

Introducing Screen Shield Teen

EP-SST-Bottle-Mock-Back-850x850.png EyePromise worked with our Scientific Advisory board of ODs and MDs to create Screen Shield Teen. This daily, chewable eye health nutraceutical is formulated for children ages 4 to 17 and designed to complement a daily multi-vitamin. Screen Shield Teen is:
  • Made with high-quality, all-natural zeaxanthin (not synthetic)
  • Fruit punch flavored
  • GMO free
  • Gluten free
  • The first children’s screen time eye health nutraceutical available in the doctor channel

Why Screen Shield Teen?

Today’s youth spend copious amounts of time staring at digital screens. Starting as young as 8 months old, screen time only increases with age. This increased screen time has led to 70% of children experiencing symptoms like tired eyes, headaches, and eye strain. With 69% of kids unlikely to change their screen time usage, parents worry about the lasting affects digital devices might have on their children. Screen Shield Teen gives eye care professionals a solution for these concerns.

Where Can You Get It?

Though it is not available for bulk order yet, you can preorder EyePromise Screen Shield Teen for your practice. Call EyePromise Customer Support at 866-833-2800 to preorder your case now and start naturally defending children’s eyes from the effects of screen time.

I Spy a Stye in Your Eye

Written by Dr. David Evans Last modified on August 6, 2018 What’s that small, red, pimple-like bump on your eyelid that’s causing so much discomfort? It’s probably a stye (sometimes referred to as a sty or hordeolum). Besides being difficult to say 5 times quickly, an eye stye is a type of localized infection that can occur along the base of your eyelashes or underneath your eyelid. Styes that form along the base of the eyelashes are called external styes. They typically occur as a result of an infected eyelash hair follicle and look like the type of pimple that occurs when your pores are clogged with dirt and oil. Styes that form inside the eyelid are called internal styes. Similar to external styes, they are caused by an infection of an oil-producing gland behind the eyelid rather than an eyelash hair follicle. Internal styes result in generalized swelling of the eyelid rather than forming a pimple-like bump. Stye Symptoms As a stye develops, you might begin to experience pain

Post-LASIK Refraction and Pregnancy – Much Ado About Nothing?

Image
Written by Dr. David Evans Last modified on August 23, 2018 During pregnancy, women experience a drastic shift in their hormonal balance that has a ripple effect throughout the body. The spike in hormones like progesterone, estrogen, prolactin, oxytocin and relaxin are all important for a healthy pregnancy, but these increased levels can also impact gastrointestinal processes, blood pressure, skin pigmentation and, you guessed it, ocular health. Due to refractive changes that often occur during pregnancy, most refractive surgeons advise against LASIK during pregnancy, instead suggesting women wait several months after giving birth before considering treatment. Women who have already undergone LASIK may then wonder if the changes in ocular health that can occur during and after pregnancy impact post-LASIK refraction. New research presented by John Kanellopoulos, MD, New York University Medical School, NY, and LaserVision.gr seems to throw cold water on any such concern. The Eyes an
