  • SENIOR VISION CARE

    When we reach the age of 65, this can be a critical time in our visual life, you may often experience faster than usual decline in vision quality, which creates heightened public safety concerns.

    There are many medical disease processes that occur as you age and these require constant monitoring for optimal health and prevention. Conditions such as cataracts and Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) are significant more common eye conditions that develop as we age. Risk factors include family history, smoking and accumulated UV exposure.

    Viewpoint Vision Care's in-home services are more important now than ever. We will visit your house, retirement or long term care community and we take the time to listen and prescribe the best lens options, sun protection and frames for our Senior population and we will do it all from the comfort of your own home. Before your lenses are made we will be able to show you what your prescription will look like in a comfortable environment, so you know it will be the change you need and there will not be any surprises.

    100% UV SUNGLASS USE IS VERY IMPORTANT AND SHOULD BE ADOPTED EARLY

  • PRESBYOPIA

    AGE RELATED READING DIFFICULTIES

    Age related focusing issues, with difficulty focusing up close, is known as presbyopia (pronounced prez-bye-oh-pia)

    This starts in most at around the age of 40, and happens because the lens and the muscles controlling the lens start to lose the ability to change focus. They become fixed for clear vision only at a distance, making it harder to focus on close objects.

    Typical symptoms are:

    1. Things up close start to appear blurry. For example, your phone or a book. Eventually, also at a typical distance for computer use

    2. Tiredness and eyestrain

    3. Starting to hold things further away in order to see them clearly

    4. Needing better lighting in order to see clearly up close

    5. Avoidance of close up work

    6. Sometimes a headache may form with close up work

    7. Slower comprehension rate with reading and close up work

    It’s a common misconception that wearing glasses can make your eyesight worse. This is simply untrue. It may be a commonly held belief because, after enjoying clearer vision with glasses, it’s easy to find that your eyesight without them seems worse than you might remember.

    In fact, if you give your eyes the correct prescription, you’re more likely to reduce the eyestrain and blurriness. In some studies, this is shown to encourage your eyesight to stay more stable as a result. So if you experience any change in your eyesight, it’s best to come in early, even if it’s just to check and get reassurance that things are ok.

  • EYE CONDITIONS

    CATARACT - Eye Disease, Opthamology, Surgery, Cataract, Cataracts

    Cataracts are a clouding of the body's natural lens. This is a slow progressing process and may appear as if you are looking through a dirty or foggy window.

    GLAUCOMA - Eye Disease, Opthamology, Surgery, Glaucoma

    Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions causing a deterioration of the optic nerve, that may result in blindness. Primary open angle glaucoma is the most common form of glaucoma which is caused by increased eye pressure.

    MACULAR DEGENERATION - Eye Disease, Opthamology, Surgery, Macular Degeneration, AMD, Age Related Macular Degeneration, Central Vision Loss

    Macular degeneration is a disease that affects your central vision. The macula is the area of the retina which forms a clear centred vision. Deterioration of the macula can cause blurring or distortion of your central vision.

    DIABETIC RETINOPATHY - Eye Disease, Opthamology, Surgery, Diabetes, Diabetic Retinopathy, Poor Vision, Retinal Bleeding

    Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes, affecting the retina -the back of one's eye. Damage to retinal blood vessels, due to uncontrolled diabetes, can cause eye floaters, blurriness, vision loss, and in severe cases even blindness.

    DRY EYE MANAGEMENT - Eye Disease, Opthamology, Surgery, Dry Eye, Drops, Lubrication, Eye Drops, Visine, Systance, Hylo

    Dry eye can occur when the body does not produce an adequate amount of natural tears. This causes the eyes to become red and inflamed, which leads to discomfort and light sensitivity - which can distort one's vision.

  • PROGRESSIVE LENSES

    “I can’t wear multifocals. I tried them once and I could never get used to them…”

    At Viewpoint Vision Care, we hear these statements all the time from our new patients. We estimate that there are thousands of people out there over the age of 45 who feel the same way because of an experience with poorly fitted or low quality glasses.

    Progressive lenses often referred to as ‘multifocals’ or ‘bi/trifocals', are glasses for people who need a different prescription up close to what they need to see far away. Progressives have a gradual multifocal effect from the top of your glasses to the bottom. This means that you can see clearly at all distances without changing glasses and the truth is that VERY FEW people are unable to wear them!

    So why do so many people think that progressives are not for them? Our experience is that, before seeing us, their multifocal glasses have not been prescribed, designed or fitted properly. Most people think ‘glasses are glasses’, but this is not the case.

    From your original refraction to trialing this prescription in the real world, to the choice of an appropriate frame to suit your facial shape and size, to selecting a progressive lens with the best design, material and coatings, there is much precision and skill required to cater for your visual needs. Dozens of observations and measurements need to be taken correctly for your glasses to work as they should.

    We are so confident that you will love your progressive lenses, that we give you 3 months to try them out. If you don't like them, no worries, we can exchange the lenses for something else, have the new lenses cut to your frame and deliver the new lenses to your home so you won't be without your glasses!

  • HOW DO COMPUTERS AFFECT VISION?

    As you work at a computer, your eyes have to focus and refocus constantly. Your eye muscles need to make very precise movements to allow you to read and work smoothly. They may look up and down from the screen to other objects in the distance, and need to refocus closer to see your keyboard or other objects. All of this requires a great deal of effort from your eye muscles.

    Additionally, screens can vary greatly in quality, contrast, refresh rate, and glare.

    If you have an existing eyesight problem, working on a computer for a prolonged period of time can exacerbate it. So, it’s important to wear glasses if you have them. If you need glasses but don’t have them, or if you wear the wrong prescription for computer use, you might find you could be working much better after a proper in home assessment.

    Computer related eyestrain can occur at any time, and at any age, but it may also be exacerbated by age-related changes and may get worse with time, if not well managed. Around the age of 40, your ability to change focus from near to far objects will start to worsen, as well as your ability to see things up close (known as presbyopia). This can worsen issues relating to Computer Vision Syndrome.

    During our in-home consultation you will be able to look at your own computer with your new prescription before we make your glasses. This allows us to make adjustments to suit your unique workspace. We will help you find the best solution before prescribing the perfect lenses.

  • SUN LENSES

    Sunglasses. UV Protection

    Your eyes need protection from the damaging UV and blue light spectrum of the sun to prevent complications or serious eye conditions from impacting your vision later in life. Most people don’t realize that the sun damages the eyes as much as the skin, especially in kids and young adulthood, yet sunscreen is often remembered while sunglasses are forgotten!

    The skin around the eyes is the most sensitive in the body; apart from the appearance of aging, this skin is particularly prone to some of the more dangerous skin cancers. UV exposure is also the main cause of cataracts (opacification of the crystalline lens inside the eye) and pterygium (abnormal thickening of the conjunctiva on the eyeball resulting in growth over the clear cornea at the front of the eye.

    Not all sunglasses are created equal, with many factors impacting the ability of a pair of sunglasses to protect your eyes from these damaging rays. At Viewpoint Vision Care, we only offer 100% UVA/UVB sun lenses. We are experienced at fitting these glasses to your face shape to further maximize protection from the sun. We use the same high-quality lenses for our prescription sunglasses as we do for the rest of our spectacle range, with a focus on sun protection and comfort for our clients.

    Polarized Sun Lenses

    Even though polarized lenses do not offer any further UV protection, they will eliminate glare off of external surfaces, this will create a much softer and soothing feeling for your eyes. By eliminating that additional glare, you can more easily see through the water on your boat or curves on the putting green.

    If you currently have Cataracts, polarized lenses are essential for acute vision - when light hits a developing Cataract it creates a cone of light on your retina, the polarized lens will greatly reduce this effect and be very soothing to the eye.
