Antelope Valley Family Optometry

October is Contact Lens Safety Month! http://preventblindness.org/wearing-contact-lenses/ http://clearlab.us/index.php/products/eyedia-clearcolor/ If worn properly and following recommended disinfecting and exam follow-up visits, contact lenses are safe to wear and FDA approved. Ask us about them!

First day of fall is today. It's also voter registration day! https://registertovote.ca.gov/ and did you know an interesting fact: the reverse spelling of "STRESSED" is "DESSERTS" Go figure. Have a great day to everyone of our Optometry friends and family! Be safe, and be strong!

Wishing you and yours a wonderful and safe Labor Day Weekend. We are closed on Mon. Sept 7, and will resume back on Tue. Sept. 8. Please observe all safety precautions so we don't fall backwards and increase COVID-19 transmissions. Lets all help slow the spread!

Happy Birthday to our wonderful Office Manager Yvette!

We are pleased to welcome back Arianna, one of our High School interns from the Palmdale Health Careers back from UCLA, and is now our newest employee. She is interested in pursuing either a career in Nursing or Optometry. We are biased about our profession and clinic if you can't tell.

August 17-21, 2020 marks the seventh annual Contact Lens Health Week. This year’s campaign theme, Road to 2020 Vision Begins with Contact Lens Health, emphasizes the importance of healthy contact lens hygiene practices in protecting against serious eye infections and other illnesses. www.cdc.gov/contactlenses/contact-lens-health-week.html

Aloha everyone! We're excited to be the first Optometry office in the AV to offer this terrific Sunwear and eyewear line: MAUI JIM Sunglasses! They have over 150 styles for both women and men now. You can select these as is or with your prescription. Mahalo!

We applied all the latest precautions and improved our office to maintain a virus-free environment. In addition to mask, hand washing, sterilization of all surfaces, we now employ multiple air purification units with HEPA filters removing 99.97% of all particles down to 0.3 microns.

We are using the highly rated Winix 5300-2 Air Purification system with HEPA filter which removes 99.97% of all contaminants. This unit removes pollen, mold spores, dust, pet dander, smoke and microbes. We believe indeed our office is eliminating the maximum number of particles, to as small as 0.3 microns. So you can rest assured, our office is keeping our air virus free. We have one in each exam room, and our frame gallery. In fact, we use this product in our own homes.

Happy birthday wishes from my terrific staff, thank you!
