Four Vision Changes That Happen As You Age
Ah, the joys of aging! As we age, every part of the body undergoes changes, including our eyes. As your vision begins to change, you may wonder what is normal (and what is not). If you are experiencing these issues, join the crowd. All of us over a certain age (generally age 40) eventually experience these four vision changes:
Why Do My Eyes Hurt? Blue Light May be Damaging Your Eyes
Whether you are a gamer, work on a computer, or just use your iPad, phone, tv, tablet, and other devices with digital displays casually for entertainment or to keep in touch with the world, you are being exposed to blue light. This high-energy form of radiation is composed of short wavelengths that are suspected of contributing to serious eye damage with overexposure. Ultraviolet light has been indicated as a strong causative agent in cataracts, tumor growth, and cancer. While the eye is capable of filtering out UV light to some extent, sadly it is just not very good at filtering out blue light. With most of us experiencing 10+ hours of exposure to unnatural blue light per day, there is growing concern that this light may be causing serious damage.
Stressed Out? Your Vision May Be Affected
Stressed out? Your vision can be seriously and permanently impacted by all types of stress! From physical and physiological stress to long-term psychological and mental stress, the effects can range from minor to severe – and can even lead to blindness. Even if you do not regularly wear corrective lenses, you may have noticed that during periods of particularly intense stress events, your vision may go blurry, become uncomfortable, or even result in debilitating symptoms of vision loss that can stress you out even more. Fortunately, help is available.
What Are the Best Glasses For My Face Shape?
You look your best when you’re wearing the colors that work with your hair and eye color as well as your skin tone. There aren’t many of us who can pull off wearing banana yellow, but when you see it happen, it’s something you won’t soon forget. Likewise, there are certain styles that match (rather than conflict with) your personality. You know what I’m talking about here… While I can’t give you much advice when it comes to whether that bright blue eyeshadow is flattering or not (yes I can: AVOID. AVOID. AVOID.) or whether you should wear the leopard print on your big date (I’ll leave that one up to you), I can give you some solid tips on picking out the best eyeglass frames for your face shape. Let’s keep you looking your best. Let’s get started.
Headaches? I See New Glasses In Your Future
If you are experiencing headaches and it’s been awhile since you’ve had your eyeglass prescription updated, it is probably time to update your lenses to match the changes in your vision. If you have had your current glasses for over a year or two, contact your nearest Wise Eyes Optical to schedule an eye exam today.
How Do I Find the Best Contacts?
Aside from naming your firstborn child, is there any more difficult decision than choosing the best contacts? Is it worth it? Should you just give up and resign to wearing eyeglasses 24/7/365? Relax. I’ll walk you through it in just a few minutes.
