Women's Eye Health and Safety Month Highlights Unique Eye Care Needs
April 14, 2022 Eye Care
Did you know that women are twice as likely to experience vision loss compared to men? Apart from experiencing a higher incidence of eye problems, women face unique health challenges due to fluctuating hormone levels throughout pregnancy and menopause.
Women are more susceptible to major eye diseases such as Macular Degeneration, Cataracts, Dry Eye, Glaucoma, Refractive Error, and issues caused by Thyroid Eye Disease or other Autoimmune Diseases.
To mntn overall eye health and prevent potential vision loss, early detection through consistent care and treatment is key.
At Medical Optometry America, we are committed to being the primary care doctors for your eyes-focusing on annual eye physicals, encouraging communication about symptoms, and regular check-ups with our medical optometrists. Here are some additional tips women and all patients should consider:
Protect your eyes from UV rays by wearing 100 UV-blocking sunglasses when outdoors.
Limit screen time and take frequent breaks while using computers or cell phones?
Avoid smoking and mntn a healthy diet rich in essential nutrients for eye health.
Ensure proper hygiene when handling contact lenses.
Choose safe cosmetic products and mntn clean facial hygiene practices.
For women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, it's important to talk with your doctor about eye care especially if you have diabetes since this can impact eye health.
Women’s Eye Health and Safety Month serves as a reminder for scheduling regular eye exams-much like annual physicals, visits to an OBGYN, or mammograms!
Too often, women are focused on managing the healthcare needs of their parents, partners, and children while overlooking their own well-being. This month is a great opportunity to prioritize self-care and take control of your eye health and overall health.
Schedule your appointment with Medical Optometry America today and start taking proactive steps towards mntning your visual acuity and eye health!
