  • Does screen time affect your vision?

    Everything in moderation, right? A couple of hours a day are generally ok but excessive hours can definitely cause eye strain, lead to headaches, or even contribute to dry eye. I recommend to my patients that they maintain a good posture while working on screens, always have good lighting, and to take habitual breaks. Follow the 20-20-20 rule. For every 20 minutes of screen time, take 20 seconds to look 20 feet or greater away. There is some thinking among retinal specialists that blue light can be harmful to retinal cells long term so because of this I prescribe blue light filters to patients with macular degeneration and those who look at screens extensively for work or study.

  • Can I wash my face with contact lenses on?

    The short answer is no. Our tap water is not microbe free and microbes from that water can get into our eyes during face washing. Those microbes can stick to the contact lenses and reek havoc by leading to an infection. Best practice is to wash your face before your contacts go on in the morning and after your contacts come off in the evening. READ MORE
