Seeing specks in your vision? 👀👀 What optometrists refer to as "floaters" are actually shadows cast on your retina by small flecks of a gel protein called collagen. These protein fibers clump together in an area at the back of your eye named the vitreous. 💡Floaters are common with age, and are usually no cause for alarm. However, contact your eye doctor immediately if you are also experiencing any of these other symptoms, as it may be a sign of a more serious problem such as retinal detachment or vitreous hemorrhage: -Floaters begin occurring more frequently or the floater changes in intensity, size, or shape -You see flashes of light -You lose your peripheral (side) vision -You develop eye pain -You have blurred vision or a loss of vision [Source: www.healthline. com] Follow our Facebook Page for more eye facts! #visioncareservice #optometrist #littlerock #arkansas #littlerockarkansas #visioncare #eyedoctor #littlerockoptometrist #littlerockeyedoctor #eyeexam #vision #healthyeyes #doctorvisit #parkplazamall #lenscrafters #littlerockar #localbusiness #localeyedoctor #localoptometrist #pupil #eyeball #eyetest #eyeexams #checkup #visionproblems #eyeconditions #floaters #eyefloaters

Oh Conjunctivitis! What are the 4 types of PINK EYE and how do I treat them? 💨〰💥⚠ 💨Allergic conjunctivitis occurs commonly among people with seasonal allergies. Substances enter the eye that trigger allergic reactions. 💨If you can, avoid or remove the irritant. In mild cases, artificial tears or a cool compress can relieve discomfort. In more severe cases, use a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication or antihistamines. Topical steroid eye drops may also be prescribed. 〰Bacterial conjunctivitis is an infection that is usually caused by staphylococcal bacteria from your own skin. Some sources of the bacteria include unclean hands, insects, contaminated eye makeup or brushes, and facial lotion (especially when shared by other people). 〰Treat with antibiotic eye drops or ointments. 💥Viral conjunctivitis is mostly caused by contagious viruses like the common cold. The cold virus can spread along the body's mucous membranes in the lungs, throat, nose, and eyes. It can also develop through exposure to the coughing or sneezing of someone with an upper respiratory tract infection. 💥This pink eye can not be treated with drops, ointments, or antibiotics because it is a virus which has to run its course (sometimes up to two or three weeks). Relieve discomfort with cool compresses, artificial tear solutions, or topical steroid drops to reduce for inflammation. ⚠Chemical Conjunctivitis happens when irritants like pollution or noxious chemicals in the air or chlorine in swimming pools gets into the eyes. Carefully flushing the eyes with saline solution or applying topical steroids can help. ⚠If a chemical spills in your eye, flush the eye for several minutes with a lot of water and contact your medical provider. 👌source: www.aoa.org #visioncareservice #optometrist #fortsmith#arkansas #fortsmitharkansas #visioncare #eyedoctor #fortsmithoptometrist #fortsmitheyedoctor#eyeexam #vision #eyes #healthyeyes#doctorvisit #newglasses #centralmall #lenscrafters #fortsmithar #localbusiness #localdoctor #localeyedoctor #localoptometrist #pupil #eyeball #eyetest #eyeexams #checkup #eyetest #pinkeye #conjunctivitis

Are you experiencing problems with your peripheral or side vision? 👀👻 Do you have to turn your head to see what's to your immediate right or left? Do you have blurred vision, nausea, and headaches? Do you see "halos" around bright lights? You might have glaucoma. Glaucoma can lead to blindness by damaging the optic nerve. The eye continuously produces a fluid called the aqueous, that must drain from the eye to maintain healthy eye pressure. The eye's drainage canals become blocked, and the fluid accumulation causes pressure to build within the eye, causing damaging pressure to the optic nerve.

👀Astigmatism is a refractive error that occurs when light comes to multiple focus points on the retina instead of a single focus point. This causes vision to be blurred or distorted both closeup and far away. Symptoms of astigmatism include eye strain, squinting, and headaches. 👓 This refractive error is usually due to the curved cornea having an oblong shape (like a football) instead of a healthy cornea that has more of a round shape (like a baseball). An irregular shape of the eye's lens can also create astigmatism. Normally the cornea and lens are smooth and curved equally, helping to sharpen the focus of light rays. 👓 Uncorrected astigmatism can seriously impact a child's ability to perform well in school and athletics. Adults are quicker to realize their vision isn't as good as it should be. Children, on the other hand, may not be aware they have errors in their eyesight. This is why it is crucial for children to have regular eye exams to detect vision problems as early as possible. 📞Call Vision Care Service in Fayetteville to schedule an appointment today!

👀👀Cataracts, the clouding of the eye's natural lens, are the most common cause of vision loss in people over age 40 and is the principal cause of blindness in the world. More than 22 million Americans age 40 and older are affected by cataracts. At first, a cataract starts out small and has little effect on your vision. You may notice that your vision is blurred a little, like looking through a cloudy piece of glass or viewing an impressionist painting. A cataract may make light from the sun or a lamp seem too bright or glaring. Or you may notice when you drive at night that the oncoming headlights cause more glare than before. Colors may not appear as bright as they once did. 📞Call us at Vision Care Service to ask your doctor if you may be experiencing symptoms of cataracts.
