It’s important to remember that people tend to blink less when they’re staring at a computer monitor all day than they would otherwise. Giving your eyes regular breaks from the screen’s glare can help you to avoid eyestrain, but you may need to use artificial tears if these breaks don’t restore enough moisture to your eyes.
The Kinetic Goldman field is a visual test that uses a mobile stimulus that is moved by the examiner. A single test light is moved towards the central vision from the peripheral vision until the patient detects it.
Everyone over the age of 50 should be routinely tested for glaucoma. Why? In the early stages, the disease is characterized by very few symptoms, but left untreated, it is the leading cause of preventable blindness in America.
In 1980, two Australian researchers devised a new vision chart. It featured a single, clear typeface along with standardized letter sizes and progressions. These factors made it easier to more accurately and consistently assess visual acuity.
Unfortunately, we can do everything right to protect our vision and still end up with various vision problems. Some of the threats to your vision come from heredity, not external factors you can control.
The eyes aren't just the windows to the soul; they're also the windows to the body! Optometrists can tell a lot about your health by examining your eyes, especially the back of the eyes where the optic nerve is located and where neurological diseases can be found.
What’s the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist? An ophthalmologist has eight years of training beyond college and is a medical doctor able to fit glasses and contact lenses, treat eye diseases and perform surgery. An optometrist performs vision tests, prescribes corrective lenses and can detect some eye conditions.
If you don’t have any fancy herbs on hand that you can use to soothe your eyes, we recommend plain old chamomile tea. Grab two of the tea bags and run them under warm water before applying to the eyes.
Ever wonder why your eyes become so red and itchy after an allergic reaction to an airborne allergen such as cat dander or dust? When threatened with allergens, the eyes react by secreting their own anti-inflammatory histamines, which cause surface blood vessels to become red and dry, and your eyes to water and become itchy.
