A package from one of our patients...thank you for all the love! We love you right back <3 :)

Watch this lucky baby as she sees the world through her first pair of glasses! This will allow her brain to make the proper connections and develop normal vision. Unfortunately, many babies with high prescriptions go undiagnosed until school age. By this time, amblyopia (commonly called lazy eye) will have developed. Your little ones should have vision and eye health exams at at 6 months, 3 years and 5 years of age - even if everything seems to be going great. Remember, it's much easier to prevent than to treat!

One of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of our time: Newly discovered lymphatic vessels link the brain to the immune system! This could mean a new understanding for many diseases - including some of the most complicated autoimmune disorders that affect the eye!
