Stay Safe

Without a doubt, July 4 is one of the most wonderful days of the year! Spending it with family and friends as we celebrate the birth of our magnificent nation. It is also the busiest day of the year for emergency rooms. With people slipping, tripping, falling, being hit by stray objects, cutting themselves, and the like. Being by the water where it’s slippery, playing sport and hurting yourself, or watching fireworks, there are so many ways you can find yourself requiring serious medial care.

Looking After the Eyes

I’m in the Fashion Spot talking about glasses and blue light. While I’m no fashion expert, one has to appreciate the protection glasses provide to the eyes. The most fashionable glasses could provide the least protection so keep this in mind when making your choice. You want to select a pair that will protect you from blue light.

So been busy writing and contributing pieces that haven’t had time to write here! I was on my first ever podcast! It was at Keeping Us Safe and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Increasing Eye Awareness

Writing another piece at Thrive, this time about keratoconus. https://www.thriveglobal.com/stories/27578-dr-alan-mendelsohn-making-keratoconus-a-household-name Not sure how many people know what this is but I’d guess if you asked 10,000 there may be a handful who do. For an illness that is as damaging as it, this just isn’t good enough. We have to do more to increase awareness of it.
