Healthy eyes start with healthy contact lens habits! Contact lens wearers can be at higher risk for keratitis. Reduce your risk by washing hands before handling lenses, cleaning & storing them as directed & never sleeping in them unless your eye care professional says it’s safe.

👀 Many serious eye diseases have no early symptoms. Conditions like glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, and macular degeneration can develop without pain or noticeable vision changes. That's why comprehensive eye exams are so important. 💙 Healthy vision starts with one appointment.
